    Team UFpwrLifters, I am honored and grateful of your support.
    Giving these videos a thumbs up is so much appreciated as are your comments and interaction. You all motivate me to stay on top of this stuff as I try to grow my gym community by spreading positive vibes through meaningful interactions at the gym and in the comments section.
    Re title: a common theme at my gym and probably a lot of commercial gyms is the lack of benches. I often find myself waiting for a bench to open, hoping someone would invite me to jump in. Be the example you want to see.
    As always, if you are not comfortable being on camera and I overlooked asking directly (because I was mid-set), please don't hesitate to let me know.
    Questions/Feedback request:
    -do you feel rushed when someone is waiting on the bench?
    -have you hit the LIKE button? 😇
    I appreciate you being here and I look forward to making more videos for you in 2022!! If you are watching or supporting online or in person, thank you 💪🙌👍 If you’re interested in supporting the channel in other ways, check out my merchandise store at:

    6:00 Those younger guys were def respectful, and also paid attention as if they were in a weightlifting class. I also find it helpful to watch your vids to help myself. I’m 5’5”, 109 lbs and can only bench 95 lbs x 3. But I’m happy with that so far. 😃

    Personally I'd be happy to have someone work in with me cause it's extra motivation. But I get if there's a huge weight difference it can feel like too much trouble to someone to be switching out all the plates between sets.

    • @ReonKad3
      @ReonKad3 2 года назад

      yeah that's basically it. onloading and offloading takes a bit of energy and at the same time you feel like you might have to rush things. Depends on whos asking I guess.

  • @willhicks8769
    @willhicks8769 2 года назад +2

    So impressed by your lifts as always, and your humble attitude. I’m the same weight as you, generally moderate lifts but my bench sucks. My chest and tris are reasonable size but I’ve just never been able to get behind the bar properly. Its fantastic watching your technique and how effortlessly you make shifting so much weight look. My max ever was 90kg and I’m at 70x3 or 80x1 at the moment.

  • @jonharris9681
    @jonharris9681 2 года назад +3

    Good stuff as always! That strength is coming back for sure. I appreciate you sharing about letting others work in. I've adopted some of your ways...pause repping and taking long breaks...and I do feel bad sometimes hogging a bench/rack. I've started looking for opportunities to let others work in - it helps foster a positive gym community. I did hit a milestone today - pause repped 315x1 on incline. I've been too scared to flat bench ever since I tore my pec (partial tear) back in Nov. Rehabbed for 3 months or so with light weight and started primarily lifting on incline. Been a good change for me.

      I actually had a bad experience with a big guy trying to spot me.
      I was new to bench pressing at the time. I couldn't lift , and the dude was like "come on ! man ! "
      But I just couldn't push. The guy looked disappointed and started talking in a big voice for everyone to hear
      " I hate it ! when people say.. I can't ! ' and then kept on rambling on like he was giving a speech.
      That whole interaction felt very negative.

    This is why I try to workout at home or go to the gym at 4-5 in the morning and always on non-peak days. It's a lot easier to get stronger if you work with high rest times. At the gym on lower RPE sets I'll rest 4 minutes MINIMUM. 4-6 generally. Whatever it takes to complete the set and ensure I can complete the proceeding sets. At home if I have to I'll wait as long as 10 minutes.

He needed a spot on a 1 rep 175#, then he wanted to go to 185#. I lifted most of the weight off of him and he wanted to go again, 3 more times!!! I see him now and walk away.

    • @UFpwrLifter
      @UFpwrLifter  Год назад +2

      Definitely don’t do the same program Don, I’d do similar weights, but a lot less reps. I like my first max attempt to be my 7th or 8th heavy rep of the session. Ie, 315x3, 350x2, 370x1, 385x1 (first max attempt) then depending how that one goes, move up 5-10lb.

  • @akassebaum
    @akassebaum 2 года назад

    I don't typically like to work with anybody, though I probably should to keep me motivated. The problem is that I hate having to switch weights. I am not saying I am a super heavy lifter, but I do try to lift as heavy as I can. For the most part, I think I am one of the heaviest lifters at my gym. Most of the heavy lifters seem to lift 225 or 250. I am sure there are probably a few that can lift way more because they are pretty buff looking dudes, but they don't seem to do more than two plates, at least that I've ever seen. Anyways, I am a fairly solitude lifter because I just want to get my lifts in and be able to rest 2-4 minutes in between. The last time I worked in with others, they were not lifting more than 165 and I didn't feel challenged at all. Maybe I just need to find others who have the same goals. I just want to improve my bench. My PR is 250. That really isn't a big number at all, but I am very proud to be where I am at my age (48). Looking to get at least 315 before I am unable to lift anymore as I get older.
