Dont they really fatigue your triceps?

You guys are too much. . .lol!!

Lets modify the equation:

WSB Techniques/Exercises + Low Volume + Buffets = Gain in strength/muscle.

Triceps work really hard during this exercises.

On the floor press, the bar is only 2 inches from touching my chest (nearly full range).

My ribcage has always been reasonably thick.

Overall floor presses beat my ass . . . thats what I need.

For some reason, I find floor presses to be easier than flat bench. Never knew why.

Well the key is to pause. . . .(box bench)

I may try these on Tuesday. I want to start incorporating things like floor presses and board presses, and JM's too.

I paused - didn't just bounce up from the floor. I wonder if it is a stabilization thing.

Bouncing off the floor on these would be a good way to get a serious injury to your forearm or wrist!

First time i did these at my gym (ymca), one of the Y "fitness trainers" that works at the desk came up to me about mid way through "You know, both benches are free now?"
