Dr Mike is one of a small group of RUclips Coaches that not only enforce fundamentals and technique but also that everyone has their own "Goldilocks" variations with in those techniques based on how they are built and capabilities and promotes finding those sweet spots. He truly wants everyone to be successful in their fitness/lifting journey and I love his sense of humor. Huge respect and absorb his content.
Thank you so much! The ONLY reason I'm in this industry is to help people. And what's wrong with acquiring a few (dozen) Lamborghinis along the way? - Dr. Mike
Ive spent 33 years lifting, I try to explain the complexity of lifting and the complex coordination of muscle groups and skeletal system as well as the the complexity of physiology/ chemicals/ hormones and nutrition etc... to people who are new at lifting or especially people who think others are just lucky that they are skinny. What most people just can't seem to comprehend is how many different sciences and how much knowledge true life long lifters need to learn and absorb to be even relatively successful at meeting any of their goals
Eh, progressive overload, follow the program, and eat all of the protein is sufficient for most guys. (Outside of competition). Some of the biggest best looking dudes in the gym are dumb. Dumb to talk to, dumb to listen to. Didn't do well in school, and think the Earth is flat.
Glad to hear some push back on the "don't flare" advice. I've benched with elbows and scaps tucked for years. As I went up in weight (not even that much) my shoulders felt worse and worse until I finally had to see a doctor and my biceps tendons were torn. After healing I stopped benching that way. I bench super-flared, basically a guillotine press, I have to use less weight but I feel it a ton in my pecs and my shoulders feel just fine. Obviously more tucked works for some people but not everyone.
A tier. Took me one set and my shoulder pain immediately changed to tricep stretching. The number of bullshit videos I've watched, and Dr Mike saves the day. Incredible.
I did my push session today and did bench press using the tips from this video and have got way more from the bench press regarding pec stimulation than I have since I started training 17 years ago. Thanks Dr Mike
A good queue that I recently learned is to slightly squeeze the bar, as if you're trying to pull your hands together, during the entire movement. Really helped fire up my chest. Had to drop the weight to practice the queue but it really helped. Did just two sets to test it and was sore the next day.
You know, I think this is the first time I've ever seen someone write queue instead of cue. I've seen people fuck up queue in my different ways, but never in reverse like you 😂
My powerlifting coach believes everyone should do the exact same.. I ended up with 2 injuries during bench pressing the past year.. I'm going to play around and find my own favored position based on what you taught us in this video. Thanks Mike.
Dr. Mike i found you a couple weeks ago and i can honestly you are the best fitness youtuber/influencer i even encountered. You are amazing, funny and your explanations are on point. I am slim, 177cm, 69kg(was 60kg before going to them gym) and i always felt that i am missing many things woth my exercises. I've been following your tips and i can say i feel amazing, lats, chest everything. You are amazing my dude, thank you so much and never change!
Every video I watched about how to perform bench press had a different technique, and everyone was always saying this is good, this is bad, do this, don't do that... you're answer is the best...move around little by little and I found the perfect position for my body....there's a reason you have a Lambo.. you deserve it 😅... thank you Doc
I love how he actually gives real advice instead of «arch, retract, elbows in, full lockout» that everyone says but comes unnatural to most & is revolver around powerlifting, not chest development
Incorporated these tips into my low incline press today and my chest was destroyed in the best way possible, especially with the brief pause at the bottom. Thanks Doctor Michael.
Thank you Mike! Ive been doing chest press with wide grip/ flared elbows. People say im doing it wrong but for some reason thats the only way i can actually feel the pump. Shoulders dont hurt or anything.
One good tip for bench that I've heard and tried and it's good, is pushing your hands together on the bar. Obviously they won't move, but it just increases the pecs contraction noticeably for me. Man I wish I could bring the bar all the way down to my chest (or stretch all the way out at the end of the eccentric for flys). I found when I started lifting a couple years ago that my (right in particular) shoulder would hurt after chest day, and not due to soreness, it was a kind of dull pain. Both shoulders, but particularly my right, is jacked up and kind of "pops" or whatever when I do lateral raises, usually when it's getting close to my side after coming back down. Or when I do bench/flys. It'll even happen sometimes when doing regular cable rows. You can feel whatever it is if you put fingers in the center-front of my shoulder. It doesn't hurt at all when it happens, and it'll happen during the day depending on how I move my arms, but it's no problem because it's not repeated and there's no weight involved during the day. But I've found that if I don't come all the way down during bench press, and don't open all the way up with flys, that it mostly doesn't happen and my shoulder won't hurt afterwards. I'm scared if I ignored it that my shoulder will eventually sh!t the bed. No idea what's wrong with it, but from what I've read about shoulders, it might be due to my total trash posture for three decades or so (and my shoulder isn't centered in the socket due to imbalances?). My posture has actually gotten noticeably better since I started lifting but no change at all to my shoulders.
I have exactly the same as you described. Most of the time it is there, but at other (lesser) times this does not happen. Could this be the biceps ligament (right word?) that pops in and out of its place? It was worse for me when this 'ligament' was inflamed from exercising too much with too heavy weight. I got it explained by the muscle fibers being too 'swollen up', pushing this ligament out of its place and it needs to find it's way back into the 'leading space" it belongs into. Supposedly it is not dangerous if not inflamed. Sorry for not having the right words in English to explain this better
Me too. I’m taking a break from barbell benching but dumbbell benching and barbell incline benching don’t make the pain at all! I’ll return to flat barbell in a few months and see if anything clicks.
Thank you enforcing the everyone is different. When people ask for tips I am glad to give them tips but I always close with do what works for you. I stress avoiding elbow flare for people not familiar with controlling the weight while doing a proper bench. I explain that later on when they become proficient with controlling the weight they may find some elbow flare is better for them. For me, after I tore my pec tendon in a spartan race I have to really concentrate on avoiding elbow flare. Again, for me, there is an obvious added stress when my elbow flares. Great videos!
Dr. Mike that comment at about 5.5 minutes in about us, the audience, being intimately familiar with the length of our fist came out of fucking nowhere and struck home hard. Well done, sir.
Well would you look at that, I was benching correctly all this time. 🤔 Exercise is not generic and Dr. Mike always drives that point home, you gotta play around with movements and tweak them to what works best for you. 💪🏽
@@arthurpatel8933 bruh what…? Nah fuck off with that weird shit, idk what kinda miserable, self-loathing life you have but it’s not my fuckin problem, and I’m not bout to be disrespected by you, I suggest you sit tf down
Dr. Mike will always be my favorite 🤣🤣😂 my problem with bench is that right after i warm up and go to my working set when I start my bench, unrack the weight and bring the bar down it seems like im doing a negative on purpose but in reality I'm just trying to bring the bar down and right after i perfrom my first rep Im good to go and moving the weight like " normal"
I so happy that I found your channel. First video that brought me to your channel was your debate with Menno about high carb and keto. Thanks for sharing great tips. 🙌🙏
So glad that i found this Video! Didn‘t feel comfortable on my bench press. Always thinking about „are my ellbows correct“ „where does the bar has to touch my chest“….and so on! Next time i will play around following your tips and hopefully free my mind and be able to concentrate on my press! Thx a lot! Greetings from Austria!
This is great info for those who listen. I work out hard with my wife. It was awesome and interesting to learn with her that we move different. I apply these techniques with her constantly for all the different types of exercises and I watch her to see where we are different in our range of motion and comfort. We strive for hypertrophy with out joint pain. Burning… yearning… for burning… then fail. Dude are done with those 10 pounders?
In true Dr Mike style I couldn't help thinking you need to think again about your second sentence. 🤣. Furthermore...not sure if she'd appreciated the possible 'dumb-bell' inference!
I love the elbow flare/tuck section. It's one thing that's disgusted me about bench "advice" for a while. And 9:11? GOLD. And, YES... Controlled explosion on the concentric.
Just got my MRI back. moderate to severe arthritis of the glenohumeral joint (the "main" shoulder joint), breakdown of the cartilage that forms the "cup" of the shoulder joint, and tendon inflammation and fraying, or partial tearing, of three of the four rotator cuff muscles. Finally there are some changes to suggest adhesive capsulitis, or inflammation about the joint capsule . I do not have pain with any lifts.
Excellent vid. Ty King. Been experimenting alot with barbell bench recently and oddly enough i find my pecs to activate much more from close grip (which was stated as a possibility in vid). Never heard any1 else suggest that so i didnt try until recently. Tyvm
I am still dumbfounded to find that people are willing to be so clueless and ignorant to press the "thumbs down" on a Dr. Mike vid. What kind of pain have they had in their lives to be so broken?
That “high school football program bench technique” is exactly how I started, why my shoulder is fucked, and why I spent a decade with an under developed chest and huge traps. Proper technique should be taught in schools, not “get that bar up!” reinforcing any means necessary
"ah cool, a bench press vid, surely I can watch this one while my girlfriend is in the room" 1 minute in: - struggling with sexuality - pornography addiction - smoking - late-'80s-homo-erotic-story about truck stops - zero bench press stuff
They key takeaway is that if the movement doesn’t feel right, you probably need to adjust your position and / or the weight. Ignoring your body’s cues can lead to injury. Pectoral ruptures suck!
This is great stuff, thanks for posting! These tips are useful and educational. I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. Have you ever used any of these custom meal plan tools? I got one from Next Level Diet to help me add some muscle and I actually like their plans. Was just wondering if you've heard of or tried any of them yourself. Thank you!

The biggest lesson Dr Mike has taught me is that I can still say horrible vulgar things online after I get my PhD
From my experience dealing with PhD's, the only thing they can't say after attaining one is, "I don't know."
Tenure is a beautiful thing
If anything it gives you more reason to
Grab the shit!

Yes I forgot about this. Heard it a while ago. Hope I remember to try it tomorrow
Wdym by pulling the hands together? Like a reverse fly? I usually do the diamond palms angle and cockscrew the grip, but I dont know about your cues
@@rstarigan no it's not in reverse. It's pushing your together to create more chest pump. Kinda like a fly press
You know, I think this is the first time I've ever seen someone write queue instead of cue. I've seen people fuck up queue in my different ways, but never in reverse like you 😂
I thought it was to cue pulling the bar apart or try to bend the bar not pulling together? Never tried pulling hands together. Imma try that in a bit.
All of RPs videos are great, but this one is special. Fantastic coaching and... just hilarious
You are one of the only fitness dudes that actually make me laugh. Your intros always get me

I love the elbow flare/tuck section. It's one thing that's disgusted me about bench "advice" for a while.
And 9:11? GOLD.
And, YES... Controlled explosion on the concentric.
I switched to the Mentzer advice a while back- closer grip, elbow flare. Results noticeably better than wide grip.
Just got my MRI back. moderate to severe arthritis of the glenohumeral joint (the "main" shoulder joint), breakdown of the cartilage that forms the "cup" of the shoulder joint, and tendon inflammation and fraying, or partial tearing, of three of the four rotator cuff muscles.
