Bench Press

[combined tree services]

if youlike me are training 5-6 days a week with cardio days in betwene weight days then try interval training either on a bike or rower or even a cross trainer ie- row flat out for one min giving it your all then rest for 30 seconds , repeat this for 12-15 mins then alternate to another piece of cardio equipment - bike , rower or cross trainer and repeat the interval training again but thi time for betwene 10-12 mins , finnish this off with a run at a good -fast pace on the treadmill on an incline . Then finnish with some ab work - leg raises , weighted crunches, rusain twists and planks.

 

that coupled with a good training programe will have you in good shape pretty quickly ,

 

So who fancies posting a coppy of their traning programe ?

glad to hear your geeting some gains mate , maybe try mixing it up with some military press , upright rows , and some skull krushers oh and not forgetting some latteral raises . all of these will aid in benching , and along with some tricep dipps will have you pressing out 10 reps at 100k in no time

thats a good weight Mick great stuff , my biggest sticking point is my legs , when it comes to squatting a can squatt 145 @5x5 but no matter what i try i can not seem to get past 145 , i know that being 6foot3 squatts are not the easyest but it still really frustraits me

[Mark Bolam]

Squatting body weight and a half would be good enough for me Dave, you'll end up with legs like Tom Platz!

 

Forgotten how good dips are!

 

I'm having that 100kg for reps for Chrismas!

im sure you will get your 100 kg mate , i bet you will supprise your self when you give dipps a go , i often chop and change betwene bench press and dipps. are you using any suplements ???
