Misc Raw Benchpress Competition 2016(Supps+Mod Reps)

He's going to. I was just already maxing after Smolov Jr. so I decided to try and kill two birds with one stone.

A lot of people swear by 5x5 for strength building. Its a pretty basic program

5x5 was the only thing that ever worked for my squat. It was uncomfortable, it was grueling, but I was doing my 1rm for 5 in about 6 months. My squat still sucks but I'm working to make this the year of 4 plates.

the next one is either gonna be weighted pullup or overhead press

I liked the OHP one. It's an often overlooked compound lift, but a good one for us manletsbrah's with short arms lol.

[TPAYNTER]

Edit: good for 142.5@122

been while since I seen someone use micro plates. Also, tell TPAYNTER I expect to see a video of him competing in this one as well

I'll throw something in later on, but I don't for see myself doing too hot in a bench comp

You still bench 400+ around 200 pounds? I think you would do fairly well.

BB.com BPC 130 @ 114 lb

[shortharry01]

Just a PSA to everyone doing this comp. Make sure you warm-up properly. I was doing some heavy doubles today and rushed my warm up. I pulled something in my chest 2nd set, probably wont bench for a few days to be safe.

lol yeah I think you would still be on that leaderboard at the end. Especially if you stayed in the 198 Class. In the 220 Class.... hell you would still be pretty competitive.

A little too quick on the bottom. Sight pause, then back up. Otherwise keep everything else the same.

Edit: I did watch it like 5 times hoping for a slight pause lol. I hate telling people no lift

Very impressive bench and form. I wonder how you would do at the ipa power lifting event on march 5th at york barbell since your in pa?

I think she was just warming up anyway. Why didn't you mail me one of those official entry cards BTW?

Thanks.

I'd probably choke. LOL. I get a huge adrenaline dump before I lift when I get nervous. Completely tanks my energy.

[RichPianoOil]

i bench 130lbs for 2 reps

[Informativeguy]

How does the classes work? like 132 class(going up) is from weight 132-148 and 148 class is weight 148-165?

Or is it 132 class is weighing 132 and below, 148 class is weighing between 148-132?

you can weigh in at 132LBS before getting bumped up to 148. If you weigh 168lbs you're in the 181 class.



How has your benching been mr Gorilla? I did 270x3 then a AMRAP with 300 and only did 3 lmao. how the hell am i going to pause more than 320 lol

[MidnightHawk]

IN on page 11...

Gonna take me a day or two to get caught up in here.

[lschepis]

Nope, Ham is faster.

180 @ 131.2. Woke up dehydrated and decided to take advantage lol...doing a slow cut, but that's usually my 24 hour weigh in weight.


I wrote the wrong year lol


Watched the video, this was more touch and go than it felt like, but uploading it because you can't see my feet in the next video. Missed 185 And yes I full on Exorcist arch.


Spotter left by the time I realized I realized the pause sucked so I had to do my own liftoff. Angle still is terrible, couldn't figure out a decent one, and also realize now why singlets are mandatory in competition. Figured this angle was better than side view though because from the side no one can tell if I even touch my chest.

Awesome girlie but that was scarrry..

Just getting in here the first time and a shout out to Ham, PartyRocking and Fitness2Fitness. Good job bishes.

Slowly trying to reincorporate Bench pressing. I'm pretty sure with all my overhead pressing, my incline bench is probably higher than my flat bench right now.

[LinuxJon]

I'm seeing a chick who is 110lbs.....

If I take her to the gym with me and film her benching the bar, can I still collect her supps if nobody else enters the <114 div?

Artemis will be coming up with a 130 bench at 114. Maybe u can win the chicks' sups in the pink can.

Definitely...should at least be able to get 130 lb before the end of the comp. But I'd really love to get 135 lbs by then.

Looked easy for you OG

[buffmouse]

Should extend it a week or 2 i have a meet on april 24th 😅 either way im in! Got 2nd place in the last one for 165s but trying to do 148s this go around. Thanks for the opportunity

[Xtian]

Thanks OG. Still messing around with my foot placement.

Because you has a penis???

The 132 Class is everything under 132 pounds. The 148 Class would be every weight between 133-148. Weight classes are usually listed by the max bodyweight you are allowed to be for that class. The only exception is the 276+ Class, obviously.

you can weigh in at 132LBS before getting bumped up to 148. If you weigh 168lbs you're in the 181 class.

Plus this ^^^
Benching was solid last week. I only had 3 sets of 5 reps, ramping up to 280x5. It was fairly easy. This week I am supposed to end my working sets with three heavy singles at 315, 325, and 335. Going to see how it goes. I think I am on that mental block time

380 at a fat 228 lbs

Edit: Good for 380@228
I laughed when the bar hit your chest and you looked down at it like you were making sure it was still there
So glad you are in the 242 class I get to stay in second place for a little longer.
Are you still sponsored?

Keep building the overhead presses. Next competition is going to be that lift. I am not using them in my training right now at all... but that's temporary.

Have her start account
Video her doing weigh in and lift
Have her post the video under her new account(I will embed the vid cause I have magic powerz)
You can even use your Youtube account for her video
?????
Profit

For example, michealemorgan posted her vid but it is under TPAYNTER's Youtube account. I dont care how you get the video here as long as she is the one that posts it lol.
But dont expect the 114 Class to stay empty long. There are plenty of sub-114 pound women on here and they lift

[stingray72]

My money's on you power house. Haha Dont rush it though keep that excellent form.
