The correct internally rotated grip is actually easier to do w a lil weight on the bar (and with wrist wraps) It helps press the bar down into that groove at the base of your palm ✋🏼 Just keep this in mind when you're trying it for the 1st time.

Train with me on my app doing my actual weekly program | 7-Day Free Trial | $8.99/mo 📲 www.myliftfitness.com/training-app IMPORTANT INFO➡️ Here are 4 Other things to know 1️⃣ Breathing: Before lowering the bar, INHALE & hold your breath (flexing your core tightly “bracing”) EXHALE as you near the top 1/2 - 1/3rd of the repetition. 2️⃣ Watching the Bar - Don’t do it. Instead, right before you lower, look at where the bar is in relation to the ceiling. Fix your eyes on that spot. When you press the weight back up - press it back to that spot on the ceiling you’ve been staring at. This can be magic for your rep consistency 🪄 3️⃣ Touching the Chest: The location of where the bar makes contact can vary between people. It should be below your shoulders. For Example, for some it may make contact at mid-sternum - Others, at the base of the sternum (the v-shape where the ribs meet) etc. 4️⃣ A Good Cue: After un-racking the bar (before you lower) think about trying to “bend the bar” - This can help maintain the tension in your back Hope this helps, ~ Davis #BenchPressTips
Dude this Davis guy’s content is next level. His videos are leagues above the other fitness creators and his workouts he shows are pretty god tier. Like I’ve legit tried so many of his workouts and they all felt like they did more for me than anything else I’ve tried. Hell even in this vid, I’ve never seen a better visual representation of how to bench press like this before. This guy’s channel is S+ tier no doubt about it
That last tip about holding your shoulders down but allowing them to still move is crucial. If you don’t do this you will start to develop shoulder pain in your bench. If you allow them to move freely you will feel your serratus and lats engage more and will feel much stronger. If you need help engaging these muscles I recommend doing some lighter face pulls before your lifts to engage the lower traps and also some push up pluses (or just the top part where you don’t bend your elbows and just push your shoulders) in order to engage your serratus.
My man is out here with movie quality edits, keep killing it. Your videos along with Squat University have helped me get rid of my shoulder pain and bench properly. Thousand times thank you 🙏
That’s awesome to hear bro. Glad it’s gotten better for you. Yeah, squat university has helped me so much over the years - especially back when I competed in strongman. A wealth of knowledge. Glad you enjoy his stuff
You’re the best fitness influencer of all by far. Great/useful tips, amazing editing, best way of explaining and quick and concise video’s. No bs and straight to the point. Thank you for your information and invested time, I think I speak for everyone when I say I’m grateful for the content.❤
I've been working out for years and made gains but never got my bench and deadlift down. UNTIL your deadlift explanation video, which for the first time led to me deadlifting heavy and not having a sore lower back. First time I had no doubt about my form. I am optimistic that this bench explanation will boost my lifts. For reference I can incline dumb bell press 100s for multiple sets of 8 but never went past 225 5x5 because I always injure myself. Anyways, I just wanted to let people know that these videos and tips are legit af. Thank you
The edits are insane. Only people who’s advice I trust for working out are Davis, Hanry (Cbums coach) and jay cutler. Keep it up Davis your videos are super helpful and masterfully done
This is exactly what I had hoped for on youtube. Other channels & videos list what exercises to do, but never actually break down how to do perfect technique in detail. You have a new follower🤘
You are correct this is the best and simplest Guide for a bench press that I have ever seen congratulations you have earned a subscription I wonder if you would be interested to make some content on lats and back something I've been personally Working on Lately have a wonderful day
I understand proper form is extremely important, and I know this video will help my bench press technique but it seems like a lot of steps to follow and it will be something I will have to work on over time. Thanks for the videos
Wow just tried it…was much harder than my usual, but no shoulder pain like usual. So I guess I’ve been doing it incorrectly. Appreciate the straight forward no BS advice
You create tension "like a bow" dude it's moments like these with your simple one liners that makes it more instructive than most longer format videos. Not that they're bad but they throw too much muscle names out there without really getting the point across. Keep it up man!
I’ve been scrolling through all your videos and liking and everyone of them. It would be amazing if you were to ever write a book series about this. I swear it would be my lifting bible 📖👏🏽💯
I don’t know how to properly engage your legs and by that I mean force them into the ground to create the slight arch in your lower back. I do it with my feet having negative force on the floor and sometimes the bottom of my feet don’t make full contact with the floor. Makes me have to focus on two things during the bench press. Maybe I’m not lifting heavy enough? Heaviness forces you to engage support from your legs ?
By far my favorite fitness influencer, bro has no beef, has helped me insanely well on my form, has given me insane exercises and Meal ideas and has a overall good physique. He deserves all the support he gets and more
Awesome.. Highly informative.. Earlier I used to wonder why I couldn’d do bench press with larger weights.. Actually my posture was wrong.. Most of the weights were hitting on my shoulder and not on the chest.. With this posture correction, I doubled the weight in just 3 weeks..
I was very frustrated to feel my chest. After watching this video, the first step really saved my ass. The initial grip angle can enhance the stability of my shoulder and now I can feel my chest! Thank you for this incredible video.❤️

Then pay it.
Pay me I’ll forward the funds to this creator

#BenchPressTips
Could you do one for incline dumbbell bench? I can't feel my upper chest no matter what I do
But how am I supposed to increase my benchpress
Really appreciate your channel man.. after my surgery this month I plan on coming back STRONG...
@@userisongrind2395by bench pressing

Man you just changed my life😭 I used to pinch my shoulder blades together and experienced discomfort after every set. Now I know why
This channel and attention to animations are a Godsend
His chest changes color, he needs to do a tutorial on how to do that.
It happends after a certain grow, keep grinding it will come 😂

Dear Davis, I could learn a lot from your videos as an amateur body builder myself from Germany! Very good content, keep posting!
Tha bow visualisation is pure perfection. Top tier guide.
