🌟 Bench press checklist @bodysculptorben . 🦍The bench press is one of the most common exercises in commercial gyms. Particularly on international chest Monday for the bros out there. However it is not necessarily as simple as just plonking yourself under the bar & just moving the bar from A to B. There are a few important things that are worth thinking about and addressing with your technique. . ☑️ Your grip width will be determined by your body type & goal. Taller people generally will need a wider grip, shorter people narrower. Powerlifters will likely go wider & people looking for hypertrophy gains narrower. Regardless you need to grip the bar firmly & with authority. . ☑️ Tuck the shoulder blades back & down, which will allow you to push your chest out & protect the shoulders. . ☑️ Your lower back is likely to arch a little due to the shoulder position, that is fine, just keep your glutes in contact with the bench during the lift. Bodybuilders, don't stress! I’m not talking about a huge arch, just a small one to help maintain a neutral spine. . ☑️ Your feet should be firmly planted on the floor & you should actually focus on pushing through the ground with them during the movement. . ☑️ Wrists should be in line with the forearms, this will help reduce the likelihood of wrist pain. . ☑️ Your arms should stay roughly at a 75 degree angle, so that your scapula can successfully adduct. . ☑️ The bar should be lowered to around about nipple height or a little lower. Not higher. Somewhere between the top abdominal & nipple line is good. This will vary depending on arm length and grip width. . 👀 If you are struggling to develop your bench press then consider & address the above points, if you improve your technique then your bench press numbers will likely increase. - #benchpress #benchpressing #bencheveryday #chestday #chestdaybestday #chestworkout #chestandtris #chestpress #chestpump #chestgains #pushday #pushpull #weighttraining #strengthtraining #liftweights #weightlifting #powerlifting #bodybuilding #weighttrain #liftingweights #strengthandconditioning #fitnessaddicted #gymaddict #gymaddicted #fitnesscoach #trainingsession #workouts

Reminding myself that I am stronger than any obstacle. Sometimes I need photo’s to remind me.

Friday. Weight training day. #friday #weighttrain #fitnessjourney #gymgirl (at Philippine Sports Performance Navotas City) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl7ytP8PvUSVSmxdxZqI1c7BnpE3Ei8pzeLJQI0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’ve always been a runner. I never considered I would be good at weights because I was so lean. But what I have learnt on my health journey is my body actually loves weight training and if I put enough focus in on what food I eat and how I train I can actually build a decent amount of muscle. Now in saying that, it’s not easy. I’ve had many women say to me ‘I don’t want to look bulky’ in fact it’s not easy to look bulky. It’s a hard job with hours in the gym and the right balance of foods. But it’s not for everyone. Some bodies are not built for weight training and some bodies are not built for running. When I understood what was right it helped me know that if I push my body too hard I burn out easily and get agitated. This happened yesterday. While I took it easy my body wasn’t ready for the stress I put it under. I was tired and cranky for the rest of the day. Now I know from experience this only happens in the early stages of training and stops happening after a couple of runs. I know next time I just have to lighten the load a little and take it easy. Then next week we’re adding weight. Join me in the gym. . . . #running #weighttraining #weighttrain #womenwholift #gymlife #gym #knowyourbody #shaewellness #shae #cvph #corrievan #fitness #fit #lifestyle https://www.instagram.com/p/B2yvCxanZK9/?igshid=12tl88d7h1iid
