Great training session today! Went for 130x5, and it felt so smooth that I decided to try for a #jokerset of 145x5. The result? It went up a hell of a lot smoother than it has in a long time, as you can see here. If there's one piece I could offer in terms of the #benchpress, it's to think about pushing back against the bench during the ascension as opposed to focusing on pushing the bar up. Your #triceps are the #primarymover in the bench, but you don't want them to do all the work either. Feel free to let me know if you find this helpful. #unitedinstrength #igfitness #igpowerlifting #powerbodybuilding#nj #powerlifting #nasm #njpowerlifting #nasmcpt #nasmcertified #iamacpt #intermediatestrengthtraining #beyond531 #jimwendler #newjersey #beginnerstrengthtraining #northjersey #nevergiveup #nevergivein #strong #eastrutherford #strength #fullbodytraining #ificandoitsocanyou #strongandshapelygym (at "Strong and Shapely Gym Inc.") https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUhuKfF1GD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1iszgvgppwl8d
