Shoulders, Tri's, & A Very Scary Moment

[thriller]

same sort of thing happened to me at the gym...i told the guy how to spot and if he had any questions and he said no...i knew just by the way he was standing he didnt know anything when i was pushing the weight so i just stopped..

There's a push press and a push jerk. What PH was doing is a push press. What PC posted is a push jerk. With a push press the hip and knee extension thrust is just enough to drive the bar half to a third of the distance up, then the rest is pressed up.

Lucky save PH.

you should just use the power rack in the gym rather then risk a bench press injury.

Thanx brother and remember these were close grips not standard bench presses.
