Gotta get that long rest between heavy sets. Check out today’s video where I show you how I find my 1 rep max for bench press. Link is in my bio @rickwestman and I’d love to know what you think and what you might want to see more of on my YouTube.

This is a follow up to my man @defrancosgym going through movements that he couldn’t do 2 months ago! To work with him and see progress like his is EPIC! Our company has worked with tens of thousands of people, and results are our focus. 💯 . And we’re just warming up. 💪 . #Repost @defrancosgym with @repostapp ・・・ NEVER PRESS ALONE [Pair Your Bench Press Sets With These Movements]: — Another Monday has arrived and that means another “International Bench Press Day!” . As many of you know, I haven’t done much bench-pressing recently (because of a fu*ked up shoulder). But, I’m happy to announce that I’m returning to ‘weighted pressing’ this week! (Shoutout to @smashwerx for all the help 👊🏼) . To prevent any setbacks, I started with a very “joint-friendly” pressing variation (Neutral Grip Floor Press w/ chains) and I kept the weight VERY light. I’ll also be pairing EVERY SET of bench-presses (from this point on) with one of my favorite upper back exercises... . 💥THESE ARE MY FAVORITE UPPER BACK MOVEMENTS TO PAIR WITH BENCH-PRESS SETS (They are listed in no particular order): 1️⃣ Snatch Grip Rear Delt Rows 2️⃣ Band Pull-Aparts 3️⃣ Prone PVC Press 4️⃣ Face Pulls 5️⃣ ISO-Hold YWTI’s I generally perform these exercises for higher reps (keeping the time under tension in the 30-60sec. range). . *If you’re someone who suffers from ANY kind of shoulder pain, I HIGHLY recommend getting in the habit of pairing each one of your “pressing” sets with one of these movements. They are all very easy-to-implement and extremely effective for activating the upper back/postural muscles WITHOUT “taking away” from your pressing strength. (In other words, they get the job done WITHOUT frying your CNS.) In fact, I incorporate at least one of these exercises into my routine DAILY! You should too. . 💪🏼If your goal is to “train forever”, I suggest you NEVER PRESS ALONE...Always pair your pressing movements with one of the upper back movements shown in this post. Your shoulders will thank you!! —— #motivationmonday #workout #shoulderhealth #benchpress #benchpresstips #workouttips #shoulderworkout #healthyjoints #strength #strengthtraining #defrancosgym
