I hope this helps me to overcome bench poverty

[@colbypark1311]

Wow, this video was amazing! From the content, to the video quality, editing, etc. Top notch Bryce and Dillon!

[@calgarybarbell]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@carlscinema7086]

One thing I'd like to add regarding the rings on the bar, is looking out for olympic weightlifting bars. Atleast here it Sweden it's very common for bars in commercial gyms to have weightlifting bars compared to powerlifting bars, meaning the marking is often wrong for powerlifting.
Quick tip: For me, pinky on the weightlifting marking is more or less the same as index finger on the powerlifting marking.

[@alexcerny5881]

With bench as my weakest lift that video helps a lot. Thanks for clearing up those little details!

[@SlickRieck]

Your stache is really filling out, looks good dude. Hype about these definitive guides, fantastic content concept; there are enough shorts out there to give people a quick fitness dopamine fix, people who care will take the time to listen and learn

[@brianrobbins3499]

Been benching about 8 years and just started to use an arch and a slightly wider grip and my pressing has definitely improved @ 67 years old

[@Sneedl-Woods]

love it, lookong forward for the next

[@Mr.BasixCSCS]

I love the quality of these videos.

[@silvia393]

Awesome video. I feel my bench form is pretty locked in. But always great to have refreshers and additional tips.

[@BasementBrandon]

Great stuff guys

[@lauravo3355]

This is of course amazing. just to be annoying, when belt use is discussed "Begs the question" means something else than you want it to, I think you want to say is "raises the question ". Thanks guys for the best quality content and production out there

[@ChrisPierson]

Solid content. Keep them coming.

[@xhelios3820]

This video is amazing! Thanks for doing it

[@trentthompson7069]

Thank you. Keep this coming!

[@lorini11]

Phenomenal as always

[@rodanderson4749]

Loved the video. A suggestion for a future video is how to spot correctly on all of the lifts. Thanks for the informative videos.

[@calgarybarbell]

That's the plan!

[@MrVigilanti]

Can't wait to watch this

[@Joshuakartawinata]

Sick guide man

[@chrisansari]

Great video!

[@markkress6134]

Thought for sure Dylan was gonna curl it when he was spotting

[@bosschonk6690]

Best powerlifting educational out there imo. Hoping you dive into arm length/hand position on part 2 for orangutans like myself and queues on lat activation.

[@saritamini]

Yay educational content!!

[@jaredholaday7280]

Quality video AS USUAL

[@sabinaguliyeva2286]

3:44 is so awesome 😂😂😂

[@aronhegedus]

One thing I like to say to people in commercial gyms for handout is
"Don't worry about the fact that it's 140kg and more than you can lift out, I only need you to take 20-40kg of it, as I can lift out 100kg myself easily".
That usually helps with them trying to yank it out completely

[@SplashFireFilms]

best Guides in town

[@mattymattffs]

Great vid. Hoping to see the rest soon. Based on the title I thought it was going to be equipped bench lol

[@anacharsis93]

i think i've learned more from this channel than i have from rippetoe's. this place is great!

[@indbolwebelieve]

Why these technic video are so addictive!

[@donaldkasper8346]

I do believe the deadlift bars are noticeable narrower in diameter for gripping.

[@barbell_lifter]

Elbow sleeves are an option not mentioned to increase comfort. I've not used them but can't speak highly enough of knee sleeves, and have a fairly weak bench (110kg)

[@shinpaws1014]

HYPE!

[@holymolly2232]

Please also do a front squat guide

[@deadandbored]

so which rack should i buy to get a 500lb bench press?

[@barbellgardener]

👍 Great

[@SobakaBlack]

❤️

[@SirNeeBob]

Mustache definitive guide please?

[@karanegolifts]

does the width of the bench affect the strenght? as i expericend my strenght go higher on the wider bench. the difference was by 10 kilos

[@gymweeb9229]

The fancy moustache is back!!!!!!

[@markkress6134]

U might’ve mentioned it somewhere but is that another Bells of steel rack? Hydra?

[@calgarybarbell]

Yeah it's the new hydra rack!

[@markkress6134]

Beeeefy

[@anthonyc8517]

Love this. Hate Bench.

[@MultiSaffran]

Why not use a DL bar? Just curious

[@calgarybarbell]

Mostly because they're thinner and meant to be "whippy" which means they'll bend and wobble with a minimal amount of weight on them. People also don't like when the deadlift bars are used in racks/benches because it wears down the knurling faster!

[@inshane0hflex]

i missed that background music!

[@magorzatapiat9110]

aaaa in first look i was thinking its gona be a equipment ...a bench shirt

[@alexanderkim6446]

See yo the next one....................................................

[@dillonJakovac]

First

[@saritamini]

I was first 😎

[@iainclarke1713]

Wow

[@chadliampolley6991]

"min/max" ✌😅

[@user-zq3ln4sw2c]

Could you tell about different bench pads? Feels like fat pads are cheating

[@karaaslan7402]

You should have waited for new Rules to become clear

[@calgarybarbell]

We will be talking about the new rules in our upcoming videos, and hopefully there will be a bit more clarity. I'm not convinced that there will be much for a while, and these videos have been long enough in the making! Haha
