Not a single fuck about form was given that day.
Yea they only care about their D1 scholarships
powerlifting
The second guys form was not bad at all.
I couldn't stand to watch the white lineman who kept bringing his feet up, he's just begging to fuck his shit up that way lol
Oh hey it's that one guy again in every video talking about form and in real life he probably hardly works out and thinks he knows everything...form police is here...stfu it was just a challenge
Spotter could probably hit 40 reps
that's lecharles Bentley he was a beast in the league. salute
😂😂
+Radza Martin He was a beast with the Saints.
mcsuchnsuch Yea he was, he was tremendous with the saints. Too bad for the injuries he endured. Great specimen.
+Radza Martin lmao specimen
first dude was about to break his chest bouncing that shit so hard
Lmfao foreal
ikr
Lmao fr and he bout killed himself trying to unrack it
That's how I was when I was a freshman in highschool. Just bounce that shit and spring it back up. Lotta bruised sternums I had.
+Ho-Lee Chit me too i still do that lol
spotter grabbing that bar early
foreal......I was 215 pounds and could rep this 12 times my senior year in HS......is that good?
+robert johnson fuck yeah that's good
Moto RR lol thanks.....very sadly I got some injuries and I now weigh 185 and probably can lift 225 one time 😢
GumGumNuke - If you manage to see this then here is some advice: If you have the money eat at least 3 meals a day with a protein shake and work out lots. The more protein and working out, the bigger you will get.
GumGumNuke bodyweight for 12 reps is pretty average
Impressive. If that last kid knew how to drive through his feet he'd do a lot better. Plus half of these guys are such narrow grip for their size.
i noticed that too, they all had pretty long arms and i think they would benefit from widening their grip slightly, this decreasing rom
do you think the floor was slipper?
Narrow grip is the best for performance! Wide grip is bullshit in that case. It would just increase the risk of an rotator cuff injurie. Thats it.
Unless you have longer arms.... narrow grip helps geberate more power from thw triceps, but increases rom considerably, if they just took a slightly wider grip it would shorten the rom, therefore requiring less work to be done to complete a rep while not affecting power too much.
+insaiyan93 why talking about arm lenght when their frame is that big?
That last kid needs to learn to plant his feet and drive through reps. He could've got 27-30 reps if he knew how to bench
who in the fuck taught these guys to bench press? what in the actual fuck was that
Yeah. If their trainers are teaching them that shit form they need new trainers. Can you imagine how bad their form is in the squat and deadlift?
+Grendelbc exactly
This is exactly why people have the misconception that lifting weights is bad for you... If you get to this level of strength with this level of shit form, you better believe you'll have some long term joint/tendon issues and be in a lot of pain down the road. Really sad to see to be honest
Wtf does that have anything to do with anything
they are football players, the coaches just want to see them throw it up there, also they are only 18, probably have never had a trainer only worked out alone in the weight room with their team, it's not about perfect form it's just about numbers on paper
The fuck was the first dude doing?
Looked like a bad grip.
Bouncing the shit out of the bar
his best
If someone taught them how to bench like a power lifter instead of a bro then they would be in way better positions and could use their leverages more to add soooo many reps to their max
Like maybe one or two....
But it would be more evident in their max.
lvdox21 true but they also could've been trying to go faster to look stronger in front of all the top ranked college players
They aren't powerlifters, their football players
Daddy Thick Neck That’s not the point. If they set up for a proper bench press they would bench press more. There’s a lot more to a bench press than just lay down and bench. This was painful to watch, not because they couldn’t bench a lot of weight, but because of how bad they are at the motion
It's always the football players that have the worst fucking form on bench
+spr95que High school and nfl players always bounce the bar off of their chests
+Mysterious Outlaw 777 don't they do that for quick reps
+spr95que i thought so
+Mysterious Outlaw 777 yes these kids are D1 athletes ur not so just shut up
+edwin asas They suck tho
Creed Humphrey! @2:10 he's been playing really good with the chiefs starting in his rookie year, I can't wait for him to anchor that o-line for years to come
if these guys tighten there back and retracted scapula and planted feet and used leg drive while keeping but down they could all easy get 5 more
dude do one and that open your mouth
+weed for life I can rep 225 5 times and I weight 170 pounds .... who r u?
+Gabe Gibson these guys are going for max reps it wouldn't of made that much of a difference. Except that last guy, he had no leg drive
+DeAndre Hamdani it wouldn't make a difference? they can shorten the range of motion by like 4 inches... Fuck out of here you un educated Fuck
+DeAndre Hamdani trust me using your legs in bench press is actually really important it helps drive your arms up if your legs are wide
I play college football and what I can say is the technique is horrible and they would've gotten more reps with controlled form
was thinking the same thing
same. what school if I may ask
+Jean Claude college of Idaho. not a big school. NAIA liberal arts school
So you don't think any of them had proper form... Not one?
+spr95que When I played football in high school our technique was everything
This is horrible form... No planted feet, no arch in the back, no drive from their back & chest. If they knew how to bench they'd all easily hit 30
Why don't you tell the coaches that.
They are young.....
+Brian Isaac these dudes are all at least 17 if they played football all of highschool they've been lifting at least 4+ years there's no excuse for shit form
True dat
You aren't supposed to arch your back
They're pretty strong for not knowing how to bench at all, I wish they'd teach these kids how to bench correctly so they don't fuck up their football career
what's wrong
+Roman DeWys the bounce, flared elbows, and no proper set up.
Ah
+Roman DeWys it's not that serious I've seen plenty ppl bench like this. Ap does. And he's a freak.
+Diggla it is very serious actually
I'm 16 and have done this 26 times. Under The Radar!
Spotter name is LeCharles Bentley. Man played for the Saints in early 2000s and was 310 pounds at 6'2" in the league. Fucking BEAST
I think the people in the comments are salty cause these are high school kids outperforming their bum asses
Most def lol. I'm 21 and got that shit for 3, I'm goin "shiiiit" aha
college**
+MC SHIZZLE nah their hs that are going d1 their like 17-18
I'm gonna be salty because they out weigh me by like 100 pounds, and can do like 2-3 more reps than me.
Yeah i can only get like 10 at the most right now of 225. But give me 6 months and i will get 20+.
This is old but great work from these young athletes at the time!
The last guys feet went straight out on the last rep what the actual fuck lol
Their form is terrible lol
+brian morales Such bounce much trampoline ;/
I saw them out there doing it
The last dude got me crying. Whats with the dancing footsies lolol. Thats actually crazy impressive he hit 24 with absolutely no stability or proper bench form.
The first white dude didn't lock out for shit
+spr95que You are supposed to, otherwise you didn't do a rep
+spr95que doesn't count in the real combine u need to lock out or it doesn't count
+spr95que "goal is reps not weight" ??? yeah of course the weight doesnt change.... only the quality of the reps: from half a rep to quarter of a rep to 1/8th of a rep and increase of injury chances...
Lmao I just said this before i seen your comment. That dude Creed didn't lock out his first 7 reps and still didn't win lol. He was on 7 in 3 seconds lol.
I was just about to comment your same exact words
One of my friends is dating an offensive lineman in the NFL. They both came over to help me move. We had our washer unhooked and pulled out a little, but were waiting for the right dolly. Turn around two seconds later and the man had bear hugged and carried our entire damn washing machine into the truck by himself like it was a box of dish towels.
Im a freshman at shawnee highschool, Creed Humphrey went here last year, its really cool to see him playing for ou
These guys are strong; people will always find something to hate on. Their form isn't the best, but it's a competition for rep count, hence the strategy.
We don't typically lift that much for hockey; the sport requires that we're more flexible, so our big guys are benching 225 to 250 and still have relatively thin frames. I'm only 205 pounds and never pushed to bench more than 215.
I would hope they can hit at least 20 reps... They all almost weigh 50-80 pounds heavier lol
Bench 50 lbs more than your body weight 20+ times then
+Tanner Virden he said they weigh more than they're benching
+Tanner Virden bruh they all weigh bout 300 and can bench 2/3 of their weight 20 to 25 times not super impressive
+Tanner Virden you obviously don't know how to read dumbass, I said they're benching at a weight 50-80 pounds less than they're body weight.
I doubt most of these guys train properly. They are just big lads throwing up decent weights
These guys are just MONSTERS
So nice being young and strong miss them years ,now I'm doing reps with 135 and baf shoulders
I had a problem with spotting and the third guy who went cheated rep wise but other than that nice
he didnt cheat reps (assuming that you said that because he didn't lock his arms) but it's harder when you don't lock your arms out because it keeps the pressure on your muscles at all times
constant tension
Bovuh Aesthetics yea that's wat I ment
+Gregory Young it takes alot more out of you to push up all the way to lockout it is most definitely not harder to stay under constant tension but not lockout
Do you even lift?
Jesus can some of you guys not understand that these boys are football players not power-lifters? Of course their for isn't very good and its not expected to be. They are football players not power-lifters.
Actually, good form prevents injuries and speeds results. Their coaches have really done them a disservice by not teaching them better. Also, if their coaches/parents have encouraged them to get that fat in the mistaken hope that it will make them better at football, they have put their health at risk.
+James Cavazos most football players do a lot of Olympic weightlifting and close grip bench work, they don't necessarily work on powerlifting
JakeWillSmith
Football players work on cleans - power cleans, hang cleans and squat cleans. I've never seen them work on snatches or clean and jerks (the two olympic lifts, as both require competent coaching and meticulous form). Players DO include squats and deadlifts, two lifts that are part of power lifting and great for overall functional strength.
+Grendelbc But as a football player you're not going to be focusing on the tedious details of weightlifting form over and over again. There's only so much time alotted when there's so much other stuff that needs to be focused on to prepare your players, especially in high school. And they're not just fat, they have plenty of muscle. Just because they're not lean and super ripped doesn't mean they're unhealthy and unconditioned.
+Grendelbc And no one encouraged them to get fat for the purpose of football. Coaches actually give a lot of attention into keeping the bigger guys' weights down so they can be better. Where's your understanding of football, if you have any at all?
Great job guys 👏
Shoutout to the guy at 1:09 and 1:25 yelling at the spotter about touching the bar 😂😂
This has to be a joke right? All of them are quite literally bouncing the bar off their chests for every "rep".... That doesn't take any strength and its why these numbers are total bs lol .. And how the fuck does that guy not know how to keep his feet on the ground, let alone drive through his heels?
Haven't you seen the combine 225 challenge? Everyone bounces it off their chest. It helps with speed
I don't know what combines you watch but.... The NFL combine players, lock out their arms.. not bounce it on their chest.. These kids still young so, I don't expect them to know what a proper benchpress is... But they will learn.
Yeah most def. When I was their age (16-17). I could barely get 225 off my chest. Now, it comes easy. So in time for these kids, cause they are still growing.
There is a difference in power lifting & athletic training you dumbass. These kids are the best in the nation in high school football. They aren't going to have a Eric spoto form or any power lifters form. Some might. But in sports you train for speed. That's the name of the game now is speed. All these "men" would whip ur ass. They are all going to college for free. They could care less what you say about them bench pressing. Ur opinion doesn't matter. People that usually that say something about someone's form can't bench as much as them. So they make up something negative towards them. I'm a strength & conditioning coach. I've seen it for 15 years now
all of these football players here are strong as shit they just have that form.
you'd think if they were champion football players they would know the basics of lifting but apparently not
still impressive with no leg drive and tight back lol
They are highschool football players not olympic lifters.
erik3423 football teams have lifting coaches, at least were I'm from.
Should we Blame the coaches?
@@erik3423 olympic lifters don't train bench
agreed if they had better for they could have all been able to do way more; especially the last dude. Some advice arch the back, place feet a near your waist, grip the bar in a way that your sort of attempting to bend the bar even though your not lol (helps to decrease elbow flare and to assist in keeping the back tight) push into the lats, retract those lats, reduce elbow flare, follow the right bar path and right when the bar hits your sternum immediately activate leg drive and power through. So much more to the bench press lol either look up on TH-cam, ask a competitive powerlifter or ask someone for advice who you see doing these techniques in their bench press properly.
Those are some big boys. I play DE and there's no way I'm going head on with one of these dudes.
that spotter really needs to chill tf out. he was actually making the press harder for the first guy by holding the bar down as he was holding it up. tf eas he doing??
I doubt this was a serious competition
***** yeah, but still, he was holding the damn bar down while the guy was trying to push up.
+TIKI K no he wasn't , he just had his hand lightly resting on the bar in case the lifter needs help, I like my spotter to have his hands ready.
Sam Watts yeah, his underarm, but you can clearly see he was putting tension on the top of the bar with his overhand.
+TIKI K it looked like the dude was lifting benching unevenly; I think he was just pressing down to even it out.
stomachs bigger than their future
ManyEvy123 you're watching...
+OG VIere I've also seen a lion eat a gazelle on youtube... does the gazelle have a big future ahead of itself?
ManyEvy123 most of these guys will make it to the NFL
+Claudia Rios false. They will die on the bench or in mcdonalds before
Claudia Rios lol
NOTE, THIS IS NOT A POWER LIFTING CAMP, IT'S A FOOTBALL CAMP! Assembling some of the best HS players in the nation, some will go on to receive college degrees and possibly the NFL. The spotter is LeCharles Bentley, Former All Pro NFL Center and now one of the most regarded Offensive Lineman Trainers in the Nation. He is well sought after by NFL Linemen for his instruction and technique. Take it easy on these kids, in college they will get the proper training and technique from a certified strength and conditioning trainer.
all these talented kids. Imagine how much better they'd be if they actually got quality coaching for lifting techniques, or maybe it's that they didn't listen. Lots of raw talent.
Form is so damn cringe
Damn spotter cant even do a lift off😂
No one should be touching that bar except the lifter until his last lift that he cannot rack by himself. Cmon man...
Too much hate, good job!! Most of these negative comments are from people that cannot even bench 225 for a single.
Does the last guy not know about legs drive?
Honey Badger Wizard his legs couldn’t reach
I benchpress while I sleep
The form on these reps are shocking
Impeccable form
I'm screaming at this spotter. I can't watch it.
Bruh, keep your feet down
Damn we out here getting people from Cfisd Cy fair high school won state championship back in 2017
Sterling Sheppard out of OU hit 22 at the combine last year. That's crazy for a receiver.
if the last dude had his feet planted on the ground at the right angle he would have got 30+
jamal azid ikr he was flailing his feet around and it pissed me off
Give me 5 mins with these guy I'd add 2 to 3 more reps. Terrible terrible terrible form and way to close of grip they also wasn't using there legs. Crazy these are top recruits that don't know how to properly bench.
Michael 23 Surrrrrre you would
Michael 23 they're not bodybuilders dummy. And there reppin for max . your alliwed to bounce a little
Dylan Joseph who the dummy??? I never once called them body builders.
Michael 23 For real that's all I could think about. the last guy had no leg drive at all and the only reason he couldn't do more reps is because he was losing his balance. plus that's not body building that's power lifting and football is power lifting.
Dylan Joseph you know nothing about lifting do you?
Before it was overtime it was this
Gotta be on the radar
Oh yeah, bounce that shit.
some of these dudes ain't even locking out their arms on their reps
After reading a few comments, the video becomes hillarious as fuck!
That spotter is constantly touching the bar!
Oklahoma Stand Up💯
💯💯
Norman 💯
OKC
BoooooooMerrrrrrrr
Is there a restriction on using your legs to push or arching your back cause that was some bad form lol
that's not bad form, that's how power lifters bench press
+Ryan Cunanan no it's not lol if your feet are all the way in the air you are doing something wrong
+Ryan Cunanan plus if their feet were dug into the ground they could push with their legs and engage their lats more making the bench easier
+Ryan Cunanan no it's no lol I hope you're joking
They did have arch in their back. Just cause it wasn't as much as a power lifter or whatever doesn't mean it's bad form.
I’m currently 229lbs a senior running back and I put up 225 20 times without bouncing it, is that good?
What r they feeding those guys!?! I'm a 29 yr old man 79kg and what they do for 20 reps is my 1rep max! Very impressed
a guy from Texas Hardin Simmons linemen challenge knocked out 32 reps of 225 and hes an upcoming senior
A guy can bench press a lot of weight but can he play football?
+James Underwood yup, hate when people equate weight room strength to football skills
+James Underwood uhhhh yeah he can play football you should watch his film
+James Underwood I have a friend that benches 295 and he is a beast in football
They have any interest in the SEC. Thats where I work
remember these boys aren't training to be power lifters. They train to play football
doesn't mean they can't work on their form
+Obi Igwe haha agreed
Yeah they coaches ain't training them how to bench right
Then they shouldn't be lifting. You don't see powerlifters running sprints
So if i wanna train for football i need to completely scrap good form on my lifts and kick my legs around like someone bench pressing for the first time?
DAMN THIS GET ME HYPE
Nice to see all of the youtube experts commenting on this video!
To be honest the second guy had a nice form
Billy Mays lol I didn't know Billy Mays watched football
The first dude pissed me off with his bench his arms was too floppy and he had no technique he rushed it plus his arms are too long for his hands to be inside the rings
back in my days..
I'll take that spotter lol dude is helping with a lot of reps
The third guy didn't lock out any of his reps lol
he did on the last 2 😂
lol I think it just looks that way because his arms are short
looks like the athletes could have gotten away with a lot of red flags
1. not locking out
2. bouncing
3. keeping butt on bench
If each athletes took advantage of the lax rules, each of them would have had more reps.
I'm 15 years old, I weight around 148 and my max is 185 I can bench it 3 times, is that good?
kevin cortez yes as long as you can bench your body weight ur good
Nope not at all
@@calvinchia744 hella weak
Yea that’s good
My max for 225lbs is 10 reps at 165-170lbs, but that's only because I specifically work on my power and strength lifting. These kids are insanely strong for their age, and in college when they learn better form, there is no doubt that these kids will be able to push for 30+ reps. Impressive lifting
but why? surely it would be better to lift heavier, or more explosively?
These kids weigh close to 300lbs, if not more. Should I be impressed that someone is getting a set of 20, at 80lbs under their body weight?
Can you get a set of 20x,@110lbs? Yeah, not impressive when you put it into context.
This is fuckin wild that dudes in high school are hitting this shit. I got 7 and was happy lmao
Every person Talking about "Form" benches 135 and wears a lifting belt to deadlift 205
Frrr the only form I worry ab is my grip and I max at 295 at 15
It doesn’t matter how much you lift. Anyone with eyes can call out this shit form.
That last guy coulda hit 35-40 easy if he had his damn feet on the ground
I was laughing my ass off at the first guy
how much where they lifting?
2:19 hes not even extending all the way 🤦♂️
Hes got the best form there actually ..
The best of the best are going to THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY
Swole eyes babyyy,!!
Marvin is a monster on the field
Where did this happen at
Y'all gotta stop talking shit xD they strong but imagine how strong they will be when they learn better technique
i would give creed some credit but he needs to lock out with his arms
What weight are they doing it at?
I've never seen a spring bench before.
Barley any of the third guys should have counted
most of there's guys have horrible form
Danny Kyle this ain’t about for him
If any of you knew, a lockout on bench is actually terrible on your elbows. So yes they did do full reps. Even bodybuilders and strongmen have the same form. So before you say they had no form do some research
How much weight are they lifting?
What weight is this?
How heavy is this? 100kg?
I was not heavily recruited and can do 24 reps at 225... They're lucky they're all 6'4" +
2nd guy and last guy def had the best forms..
I'll be here next year
Soo how did that go
The last dude beat it without his feet touching the ground
I'm not eating enough food. LOL
Where is this?
