      Could you explain more? I've gotten my close grip bench press to 255x2, but my regular bench has stayed at 275. Any PRs I could aim for with the close grip before expecting the change?

      DB Neutral grip helped me I believe, but I used kettle bells instead because of this other video. didn't bench in a couple weeks, just did that workout and push ups, and I was able to hit my max surprisingly. Im 19, maybe it is because I have been growing, but Ive been the same size, or I used a new preworkout drink. idk

    1. Neutral grip dumbells bench (focus on drive off the bottom)
    2. Close grip floor bench (focus on drive into lockout at top)
    3. Tricep extensions (pump in triceps, mass in arms)
    4. Explosive push-ups to boxes (coordination and explosiveness followed by controlled deceleration)

    I started bench pressing with the goal to put some meat on my pegs. From day one I focused on the right technic and got some tips from a powerlifting athlete. Because of that, I believe, my chest gains have been slight, but my arms and overall upper body strength have increased dramatically. Last 10-12 months I've been fairly consistent and I'm now able to lift 230 (I'm 160) and do reps at 220. Haven't hit a plateau yet, but I'm sure it is just around the corner.

    Update6 months and I'm still loving this bench. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxo_64lVTGMk7y4aXTPxPOcQ3YTLyQ6kYV I use it almost daily. I've gotten used to the small wobble and it's no problem at all. Love the storage, it folds right next to my weight set in the garage and hardly takes any space. I wish the covering material was a little bit tougher. I have a feeling that in a couple years it'll tear, but the bench is very well priced that I would just buy a new one.3 month usage review. Awesome bench for someone looking for compactness and storage. I did have to drill a couple holes to adjust my preferred seating position and leg bar position but that's only due to my personal preference. It's very sturdy for normal workouts, but for anyone going above 100# dumbbell press it wobbles ever so slightly. I would probably go with a fixed bench if that's the case. That being said i can accomplish 99% of my normal gym workout with this setup. Very happy with the purchase.
