    The fact the athletes in some of the clips have shaky form convinced me to download the app…
    Shaky form can limit strength, but these guys are powering through heavy loads which tells me the overall programming is REALLY good
    Impressive

    Hi Dane, gotta question regarding programming flat and incline. I'm asking this from a bodybuilder stand point as I'm in a hypertrophy phase. How frequently should you rotate flat to incline in terms of a week to week exercise. I've been alternating every other week flat bar to incline e bar and was just curious about your thoughts on this from a hypertrophic standpoint. Thanks for all you do for us Dane and members at Garage Strength

      Because in incline you're also using your shoulders.
      In flat, you're fully targeting your chest.

    Generally a rule of thumb is incline bench is 80 to 85% of your flat but everybody is different.

    • @sterlingsilver5937
      @sterlingsilver5937 3 года назад +8

      Option C. Spend a month training other parts of the body and see if the pain goes away. I understand that you may want to stick to a particular routine but you could end up doing serious damage to your body. Just a suggestion.

    Flat bench lvl of strain on your outer pecs and shoulders is about 9 out of 10 and incline is a 3, if you do alot of other chest stuf and you want to do shoulder work I wouldnt do flat bench , if you do flat bench the full recovery time is like 3-4 days for me anyways incline is like 2.

  • @someguy8281

    do you count your athlete's lifts if their butt comes off the bench? not trolling, just curious

    • @GarageStrength
      @GarageStrength  3 года назад +5

      Yes. I think it's fine because we emphasize using the whole body to push and move the bar fast, but if it begins to affect the integrity of the lift and begin hurting themselves we will make them put their butt down increase focus on the chest and upper body.

    • @someguy8281
      @someguy8281 3 года назад

      @@GarageStrength right on, I know it's villainized by most coaches and keyboard warriors so I appreciate your take on it. I personally don't think it's a big deal either unless you're a powerlifter (where the rules mandate keeping your butt down). I'm also really tall so for especially high effort bench pressing I have trouble getting significant leg drive because my legs are too long for the standard bench height. Any possibility of making a video about advantages/disadvantages/tips for taller lifters?

  • @Valkaneer
    @Valkaneer Год назад

    I was trying to decide on what kind of bench to get my new set up and this video convinced me to go in the direction of an adjustable bench. Good info.
    Why are all of those guys butts coming off the bench? That's no good, says they can't actually handle the weight they are trying to push. When it happens to me I don't count that rep because I know I had to lift by body to get the height to lift all the way to the top, and if I had kept my butt on the bench I wouldn't have been able to do it.
