Do what you can

2:13

Like if there is a weight you can do for 8 or 10 reps And you go up by 5 or 2.5 kilos there is no fucking way youre failing on rep 1

2:14

And even if reps 1 2 or 3 are difficult you can always rack it dude

Do what you can

im trying to get my 1 rep max

Cold

Then why are you scared of failing on bench

2:36

2:36

Btw bench and smith bench are totally different You cannot compare them in terms of numbers

Guys how do yall do incline? My left wrist specifically near the thenor (thumb area) hurts

3:47

I have small wrists and hands btw

3:47

Db incline

3:48

Feels like my hand or forearm gives up way before my chest does and im starting to think my body might just not be designed for db press

3:48

Considering my other lifts are alright for my experience level

Does leg drive make a big difference

4:56

W bench press

Cold

Does leg drive make a big difference

Yeah

5:02

It’s more using ur legs for support

5:03

Keeping them solid to the ground

dr.Smoko fake PhD

Yeah

what does it mostly help with

5:04

would it let me do more weight

5:04

or just more reps

Cold

what does it mostly help with

Keeps ur torso tight and proper form

5:05

More u maintain form more u can lift

i did 65 kg last week

5:05

first time on the smith machine bench press

5:05

for 1 rep max

5:05

do u think thats good

5:06

i think my form was a bit ass

5:06

but yea

Can’t tell u if it’s good or bad

5:06

If it’s more than last week then it’s good

btw

5:06

in ur opinion

5:06

do u find the smith machine harder than normal bench press

Cold

i think my form was a bit ass

Can’t lie don’t use weight till u know form, bracing etc

Cold

do u find the smith machine harder than normal bench press

Smith bars are like 10kg less than barbell

5:07

The strict path is defo

5:07

Which is why I don’t like it

wym defo

Can’t lie don’t use weight till u know form, bracing etc

oh yeah

5:07

should i learn form with smith machine or normal

Cold

wym defo

Having the strict a to b path is harder

wyoab

5:08

strict

My arms do a slight decline

Cold

strict

It’s a straight line

5:08

Or u can’t curve ur form or anything

oh ok

5:09

one more thing

5:09

ive heard machine shoulder press can cause u injures

5:09

Like this

and that dumbell shoulder press is better

I have a ever so slight curve

5:09

From top to chest

when i do it

5:09

i dont have a curve

It’s just a personal thing

5:10

And how u have ur hands on the bar

5:10

And where it touches

5:10

As long as ur arms are at 45 degree it’s fine

dr.Smoko fake PhD

It’s just a personal thing
