Unfortunately, most of us spend too much time sitting with office jobs or sales jobs that require a lot of driving. I literally just tried the kneeling bent press with a 25lb plate and it was probably the best hip and lower back stretch I’ve ever done. I feel like 10 years of being hindered by tightness was released. I do yoga stretches and functional exercises but nothing compares to this. Thank you for introducing James to your channel. I sent this link to everyone that I could think of that will benefit. James is a badass!
Interesting. My back is absolutely buggered now, and this exercise looked like it would cause me some severe aggro! But your comment makes me interested in giving it a go!
Hey, i knew about his chanel about 10-12 years ago and this guy fascinated me with his style of lifting. I remember one thing i learned from him was that you can sit down in silence and keep yourself calm and relaxed before every lifting session. No pre-workout needed. After years of training i can see this kind of information starts to make more sense to me as i continue to benefit from lifiting. Trying to keep an open mind to everything and i can see for long term perfomance and health we all have a common ground ! Hello Juji, from Vietnam :-)
So great to see James getting some exposure, I've been subscribed to his youtube for 5+ years. I like to try some of the things he does on his channel and I am always humbled, even though I'm half his age, I can't keep up!
Apparently the old time strongmen could do 300lb bent press even some at sub 200lb bodyweight so I really wanna see if I can push that for circus dumbell in Strongman comps I'm excited to see how it works out
I think Saxon not did twisting his spine...he just bent on side...kind a strongmen dumbell press with bend....like Mateusz Klieskowsky or Mitchell Hooper do
I am not an expert but as I understand the bent press and have practiced it, the elbow and or upper arm rests on the side of your torso, lats and hips as you bend down under the weight and your upper arms should not come off of your side until your arm is fully extended and essentially the weight is supported by a straight arm. You're resting the weight on your side, lats and hip until you shift under the weight and transfer the weight to your straight arm. You're basically bending down away from the weight while you straighten your arm and take over the weight on your straight arm. Many guys tend to try and press the weight but it should never really "pressed". It's just balanced on your forearm off of your side, lat and hip until you can bend down far enough to straighten your arm under the weight. The sticking point is not really strength when you first learn it but the mobility of your shoulder to be able to keep you arm against your hip with your forearm straight up. Your upper arm has to be far enough on your hip to support the weight with your hip. This requires a lot of mobility and stretch in the shoulder. Yes ultimately strength will determine how much you can lift with this move but mobility is the key to learning the lift. If you lack mobility in your shoulder you won't be able to keep it resting on your side until you can bend away from the weight far enough to fully straighten your arm. If you can't fully straighten the arm while resting your elbow on your side, lat and hip you will have to press the weight up rather than simply transferring the weight to a straight arm. This will mean that your pressing strength will limit how much you can lift in this move. You have to remember it's not really a strict press and at no point during the lift are you pressing with a bent arm if it's done properly. Sorry for the lengthy reply but it's definitely one of the more complicated and misunderstood lifts and I see a lot of guys doing it wrong and trying to press the weight up with a bent arm press rather than a straight arm transfer.
@@bgrl6422Sorry but it is a bit complicated to explain without demonstrating alongside the explanation. Also I'm not the best at articulating myself in writing. It's kind of my achilles heal but I appreciate you pointing out my weakness.😂
If you squat down a bit more you'll avoid the half press. That seems to be the key difference between your form and his. He extends his arm by lowering his body, squatting to get the last bit of depth needed then stands up with it. This was a great video. I've been curious about this lift but never thought anyone would be using it in this day and age. Glad y'all are getting this out there for us to see.
This is amazing! I played around with the seated version after watching James' gym tour video. Man, it loosened up something in my hip that I've never been able to stretch, and my back has felt great for days now. Thank you both for the awesome tutorial! I'll definitely be doing more of these. 👍🏻
I did a light version of this for mechanics (20lb dumbbell on the kneeling variation) and just holding it up in that twist felt incredible on my lower back. Both directions I could just feel tension releasing. Beautiful weighted twist.
Love this, this reminds me so much of the turkish get up way of training, opposite to hypertrophy but still necessary. It is finding moving patterns and looking for the most efficient way to achieve the movement. It still uses your muscles and puts you in compromised situations and makes you resolve the situation. I think this translates great as a strength movement for grappling sports.
I am sure Juji's still getting bigger and bigger. You have been inspiring me to exercise more for many years. You have also inspired a lot of broccoli-eating, for which my pet finches also thank you. :)
Watching this made me want to start playing around with this lift myself and I'm starting to love it, still need a lot of practice with it but I think I'm on the right track. Thanks for posting this
Great tips! I have tried the bent press and it feels wild to move weight in this manner. Learning about dipping down with both legs is what I'm going to add.
I have learned, been inspired and re-inspired time and time again from this channel, it has helped me with ailments, workout lulls, physical strength and physical therapy and recovery. Thank you Jon, you rock and thank you for this channel.
Awesome to see someone do this lift properly! A lot of people who lift kettlebells think that they're doing this one right, when they really aren't. Then it spills over to dumbbells and just looks terrible.
I just tried this lift on both sides with only an 8 LB dumbbell I use for PT stretches and it felt so damn good on my back and sides. Thanks for sharing this!
What a great Video, James is great! I love the approach to training he has that is to be complex and work as much as possible without isolation. Would love to see more of the two of you working/learning. Im going to head over to his channel and start learning some old school strentgh movements!
@@KeyserSoze23 sorry to break it to ya, but 50 is old, 60 is older, 70 is very old, 80 is old as fu*k, 90 is "How you even alive bro?", and 100 is a miracle.

Juji - Have you ever met Pavel? These are mostly kettlebell lifts in his book from 25 years ago, which are mostly likely a century old. Would be a great collab. One of the best guests on Joe Rogan.
I really like thouse old strongman lifts, i my PR on bend press is 40 Kg with olympic barbell, but never tried variation with plates or kneeling. Does he know more lifts like this? I only tried windmill,Turkish get up, one-hand snatch,one-hand deadlift but would love to learn more old times lifts.
1:07 I have the same thing, except mine on my right arm is twice the size of my left. I think mine is mostly from playing guitar, and specifically how I strum upwards and alternate pick. Other things probably contribute lol
Some people will say that these old time lifts from the days of our great grandparents, with their twisting and leaning, are an invitation to injury. These same people may forget all the crap their friends, family and coworkers have given them for squatting and deadlifting - for lifting at all - “Oh, you’ll pull a muscle! Oh, you’re gonna wreck your back! Oh, you hurt your knees…!!” Yet, we continue to enjoy lifting!! For the most part we are helped rather than hurt by our iron passion! To the point that these featured movements are not “real lifts” like the big three power lifts, or the two Olympic lifts, or even the…concentration curl… it’s ALL Lifting!! In the mid-1980’s my employer removed almost all the playground equipment from the yard of the facility I worked at; stating that slides, monkey bars, small merry go rounds, crawling obstacles, gliders, teeter-totters, and bouncy seats, etc. were not “Age Appropriate” to adults even if those residential setting clients had IQ’s below 70, often well below 70. The items the boss chose to keep were the softball diamond, the concrete pad with basketball hoop, and two swing sets. That boss himself played on two recreational softball teams, so considered softball to be “an acceptable adult pastime.” He considered basketball to be a sport even though he didn’t play it (as his predecessor ironically had), so “shooting hoops” also made his “Authorized Games” list. The two swing sets remaining baffle me, as he had others removed as “age inappropriate.” My point is that what you and I consider “normal” or “acceptable” activities - what lifting movements we believe are “manly” or “purposeful” or “not-B.S.” - are totally open to conjecture and individual volition. If you only want to bench and cheat curl, that’s up to you. Prefer the powerlifting three, have at it. Like how the Olympic snatch and C&J feel, do them. Enjoy odd lifts, stone hefting, sled pushing, bands, pulleys, machines, old car parts, squat racks made from two adjacent trees, pulling a truck in your driveway, throwing sandbags, hoisting kegs, closing grippers, performing pull-ups, arm wrestling, bodyweight exercises, partnered grappling, hand balancing, or even performing very difficult “tiger bends” or “the flag,” that is entirely up to you. It’s not up to me to decide what - if anything - you find fun and beneficial. I like seeing and hearing of options for activity, whether I choose to try them or not! Thank you for this explanatory episode!!
My understanding of the bent press just got MUCH better. I have only attempted the lift a few (maybe up to 5) times, and I sucked at it. Now I know why - I got it ALL wrong. From what I see here, it reminds me a lot of the KB windmill, which I once was good at. I managed to that one with a 44 kg bell (~97 lbs). It was great for lover back. Then I got a bad hip, could not do it for a long time, and since I got an artificial hip, I have not had the guts to turn back to that exercise. ...... I need to do windmills again and/or practice the bent press. Very inspiring video. 👍☀️💪☀️👍.
7:52 - This has been a really cool series of videos. The bent press looks like, dumb... like why the hell were they doing that... but then when you understand more about the lift, it's a far more interesting lift than one might think.

The trick is that you're not lifting with the arm, you're stabilizing and supporting with the arm while you move under the weight. It's a great lift.
Love the bent press. Thanks for showcasing this old lift. I could listen to James Fuller talk for hours. He has a yoga vibe in a strongman's body.
I can picture Martins being really good at this, someone get this guy on Strength Unknown.
Martins was doing bent press as part of his training/rehab a while back.
He was with the boatload himself the other day. Dude grizzly makes martin look small.
I always thought that Martins should make a run at the all time record for the two hands anyhow.
