2 More PR's On Flat Bench

[WalkingBeast]

nice work on the PR Beast. You are missing the lift because your tri's are weak at your lockout. Try hitting up some board presses with 4 or 5 boards. This will help you to increase strenght in your weak area. keep pressing hard, and focus on your goal. you will get it soon...

ThanX brother!! Appreciate the feedback. Triceps are definately my weak point, especially when it comes to size. My rack lockouts werent so bad though. I hit 545 for 5 reps, and felt I couldve gone a good deal heavier, but stopped cuz wrists and back were starting to give me pain. The board presses sound like a good idea. Ive never done them before. I was using rack lockout and speed bench but havent been doing them lately to minimize pressue on my back. If I wasnt working around these injuries Id do some rack lockouts or board presses. ThanX again!!

board presses are easy. get one 2x6, and then some 2x4's all cut into 18inch sections. do whatever you can to hold them together. i use duck tape. get someone to hold the boards on your chest, and press away as if you were doing a regular bench press. its a little different the first time you try it. use different number of boards to strengthen differents parts of the lift, all dependant upon where you are getting suck. i use 3 boards because that is my sticking point.
