Does anyone else feel therapeutic relief when these guys start talking about these indepth topics. Lol I do. I love listening to this. These guys truly were and are students of powerlifting. You can tell what a passion it is for them.
JM turns off the music. He then whispers to the barbell and listens. Once his whispers have properly echoed off of the barbell and it has told him what he needs , and only then, does he move on to his supplemental work
Been listening/reading JM's stuff since the late 90's. Dude's awesome, very knowledgeable. All that being said, he could make some good money doing voice over work for Hollywood films/tv.
this is coming in a bit late but hope its still helpful, he mentioned JM presses for his tricep "tendons". What he's saying is JM presses are a tricep exercise that have a lot of range of motion for the elbows, working the triceps in an expanded range, and the fact he can load that exercise heavy is very beneficial to help keep away tendonopathy/ tendon pain.
I don't know if you got an answer but it isn't the same the slingshot does not make the weight lighter it makes you stronger the bands pick up a certain amount of weight with the slingshot the weight is always the same. Both are great though
It's just my opinion but I think this video may be best video on just keeping sh$t simple and not over complicating it. Practice like you want to compete..
pawlakowa paused bench (with or without tempo), paused spoto press, etc. Just focus on movements that target that bottom portion of the lift, which is where you’re missing. Oh, and bench more in general. Like JM said, you get better at what you practice
JM speaks like he's trying not to wake you up from a nap.
There is something hilarious in the way they talk. Kinda reminds of The Mindhunter except instead of murder they talking benching.
😂😂😂
Hahaha, yeah... like he's trying to tell scary stories by a campfire.

Wish I watched this before I jacked my elbow up a month ago!
JM is a jacked Yoda.
:p
Would using a Slingshot be similar or the same as reverse bands ?

@@multiply765 Thanks
We need bill kazmaier on this podcast
Can anyone tell me what the name of the song is at the end of the video and the name of group??
It's just my opinion but I think this video may be best video on just keeping sh$t simple and not over complicating it. Practice like you want to compete..
Which episode is this?
What is the name of thw intro song
Lol to put Iverson in it was nuts .BO ONE EVER played harder then him .
Allen Iverson an exception because he fucking balled in game
So he gave up training legs? What kind of meets was he doing then? 🤔 Bench Press only?
from memory he says that he had a back injury and hence why he only competed bench and not all 3 lifts.
Bench Master: Why am i doing legs? So i quit doing it.
what if i always miss the bench ~2 inches off the chest ?

@@hookgrip4jesus310 thank you
pawlakowa No problem, my dude. Keep plugging away and chasing those gains!
Everything Ryan said + Pin press. Starting at the bottom.
Heavy overhead press, the bottom of the bench uses the shoulder
When you say specificity enough times in a row it sounds like gibberish. 🤣
JM is the American-human version of Korg
His best raw was 468?
5 something
520s
Of course he fails at lockout... its a bench shirt what do you expect
is JM the first guy to justify not doing legs in order to hit chest harder xD
Tryinggg to beee a little tooo cerebralll ...... ahhh .
Listen you dont get a 600 pound bench by doing only two trisep exersizes
