It won’t matter how big your bench was when you were in your 20’s if your shoulder is so damaged that you fall off by your 30’s and have to hide from the bench press for the rest of your life I’ve been benching like a mad-man for years now and never once suffered a shoulder injury from it, which I get can be luck, but it’s also the fact that I try to keep my shoulders out of it! Bringing the elbows in requires a tremendous amount more focus and technique than letting the elbows flare out on a wi

This is my go-to machine movement for the lats and has been a staple for me for years. If you have my Mansour Method training PDF you know that’s it’s programmed in there too. Some gyms have machines that now perfectly emulate this movement pattern but if you don’t have that luxury, here’s your alternative Hope you try it and love it as much as I do! #bodybuilding #nutrition #diet #wellness #health #lifestyle #reel #powerlifting #weightloss #transformation #education #educational #exercise #work

That being said, close grip bench/smith, JM press, or heavy weighted dips will always be a “better” option … if you’re able and willing. Otherwise, here’s a great option for double joint tricep movements for that lateral head nourishment #bodybuilding #fitness #weightlifting | Ziad Mansour

Practice makes perfect! Learning to engage the lats on bench press is a skill that you need to nurture and develop.

Short and sweet version: Keep doing what we’ve already understood for decades. Presses better grow lateral head. Extensions better grow long head Examples of double jointed tricep movements since people see to be confused about them: -close grip bench -bench -JM press -dips -cable PRESS/PUSH downs Anything where the long head is experiencing opposing actions at the elbow and shoulder #bodybuilding #fitness #weightlifting | Ziad Mansour

There is never any reason to waste a second waiting for someone to finish using the machine/dumbbells/bench you want. Variation exists. Yes, it is always ideal to be able to standardize progression by doing the same thing but if you don’t got it like that to have your own gym and to have complete control of being able to use what you want when you want, then let adapt and make it happen. I promise you, if the specific variant you have to use matters that much to you, I can already tell you you a

Because I started off as a powerlifter, this was one of the harder lessons for me to accept as in powerlifting culture, if the ROM isn’t complete, you didn’t hit a rep From a hypertrophy standpoint, it makes total sense why you’d want to stay in a limited range of motion to prevent the shoulders from being involved when hitting the upper chest No, you do not have to do them single arm like me (although it’s a fire movement), but doing them single arm while you’re learning allows you to use the o

Great alternative to the standard bench press to prevent shoulder injury. You will rarely see me go above 315lbs on standard bench press ever. The weight load and strain on the rear delts during the negative portion and when breaking inertia at the chest is way too risky in my opinion. Of course, I didn’t always think this until I continuously found myself developing AC joint pain and tendinitis, having to take weeks on end away from benching. Not to mention the endless horror stories I’ve heard

We know from over head press with elbows flared, behind the head presses, etc, that the medial delts have tremendous potential when it comes to pressing and that they respond amazing to presses. We also know that one of the main functions of the traps is to rotate your arms. So although the traps will be involved regardless, by treating lateral raises like an outward push INSTEAD OF like a rotation, you minimize the contribution of the traps as the traps are not designed to push. So if you’re pu

Key points as to how underhand bench better loads the pecs and protects you shoulders:… -Shoulder joint only has to spin (single arthrokinematic motion as opposed to two with traditional bench)-Overhead bench requires both shoulder abduction and flexion which leaves more room for impingement. Underhand only requires flexion-The moment arm for the pec is larger on an underhand pec better prioritizing load on the pecs due to the bar falling under the nipples-Until about 45 degrees of shoulder flex

It doesn’t matter how big and beautiful the house is if the foundation is garbage! Having your back properly engaged on bench will prevent pre-fatigue of the prime movers and generate more overall tension in the bench press, giving you a more powerful pressFull workout on my YouTube!

There’s a reason why it’s something like one in a million people in the world can bench press 315lbs (not exact) and why A LOT of those people end up injuring themselves benching. It’s because this movement is SO much more than just developing the prime movers (chest, shoulders, triceps). The bench requires a more sophisticated execution that is not easy to understand without proper instruction and the people thinking that there’s not more too it than the prime movers are the ones who end up inj

Just because you are benching with your hands closer than normal, doesn’t mean you’re properly executing a close-grip bench … Close grip bench serves two primary results. The first being muscle development of the triceps and the second being the increase of the driving force contribution of the triceps towards the bench pressStaying shoulder width or greater with your grip, the chest will still stretch at the bottom position and therefore will contribute to the overall contraction upon pushing t

Some people will have better leverages to maximize motor unit recruitment and maximize hypertrophy than others when it comes to different muscle groups. For instance, my legs grow like weeds. I have great leverage to utilize my actual muscle fibers to drive weight and therefore very simple exercises do a lot. This is not the case with my chest. I had to play with little tricks to get my chest to catch up to my arms I know some people that bench press and chest flies will work wonders for them bu
