form is awful on the skull crushers, elbows go down to the bench, and the music is hideous too
, kinda like doing 1/4 squats since there's too much weight on the bar...

Its decent weight but his form was so off, they were almost like CGB rather then skulls. And those taped DB just looked fishy. I dunno maybe im wrong
because those are both isolation movements. isolation movements bring out the detail and striations in that muscle. when people go heavy on isolation movements, they sacrifice form and less tension is actually put on the muscle.
I dont know about that. Your muscle knows resistance period. Its easier to lose form most likely BUT still takes alot more strength to KEEP that form...so is it harder or easier?
Its good but his form is so fuckin horrible. He could probably do less weight better form which would still be a lot of weight but yea its like the guy doing 1/4 squats and saying he actually did one.
well say 80lbs was at 100% isolation, meaning all the tricep is invloved
you bump it up to 140 and now only 60% of your triceps being used, thats still 84lbs. Does that make sense? Idk if it does

What a joke, form was fucking horrible he was practically benching the weight. The dude is strong but to call that a 400lb skull crusher is absurd.
lol @ moving his head up to get closer to the bar
lol @ skulls crushers looking like bench presses
lol@ the fact that I lift more than half what he lifts in triceps and I use proper form

thats why I labelled it as a JM Press
the ones he called nosebreakers were most impressive to me...

Somebody go get scotsman and tell him some peeps up in here are dissing the bagpipes....
And yeah, I might have been more impressed if that infernal instrument weren't bleating in the background. I want to take a samurai sword and slash every bagpipe on the planet. Even plants shouldn't be subjecting to that racket. How you can call that music?...

Some people can CG bench alot more then regular bench, such as myself.
I used to be stronger on CGBP at one point too.
Is the reason you are because you dont do much benching or chest work as it isnt very important in strongman but you do alot of tri and shoulder work as that is very important in strongman?

Probably, although even when i was doing bench regularly when i first started out i was still weak on it. However recently i have been changing my form up with the help of someone and its helping my regular bench alot.

duct taping plates to a dumbell to make it 154lbs & than extending it over your head is pretty effing stupid.
He put up another video the other day of him doing it with a taped DB weighing 176lbs lol
i bet his from is worse then the first try.

Yeah skull crusher (or nose breaker) poundage can vary hugely based on form. Keep your elbows way in tight and poundages will plunge. Great for helping you cheat out a few last reps, but so tempting to let your elbows spread out and get weight happy.
nahh he didnt make the lift. I never said his form wasnt bad, but to do what he calls skullcrushers with that poundage is still pretty impressive, even though it was pretty much turned into a JM Press. The db extension was kinda crappy too as the elbow came down, but again not many people could do what he did with the weight. The video he called nosebreakers was closest to good form.
