So you want to learn how to lock out your bench? Well then the floor press if for you!!! Your workout might have straight weight, you could be including tempos or bands possibly. But isolation the movement pattern by reducing your range of motion is the next key to unlock your inner strength. The floor press utilizes the body's limits through physical composition to require you to start pressing your bench from a weird and unconventional point. So why would you use the floor press you ask? Well it's all about the forearms and back and their ability to take your bodies stretch reflex away and make you earn those extra plates.
Let's take a step back and thing about how this bench press exercise might plug into your next workout or cycle. So you want to improve your bench press, well we have a few videos that we will list below you should check out first:
Proper bench form: • Bench Press - Best Tip...
Proper bench advanced exercises: • 5 SECRET TRICKS to DES...
Bench with bands: • SPEED BENCH Done Right...
How to correct your bench in 15 seconds: • Tips To Fix Your Bench...
Okay so one thing we want to say is that this exercise is pretty safe for those of you who are on the slimmer side of things, if you are a very large lifter and want to use this exercise during your next workout be sure to have a spotter when trying different amounts of weight to find your training threshold. The reason is because the 45 plates will protect most smaller lifters, but if you're larger you might find yourself trying to lock out the lift only to have the bar pinning you to the floor. So bring a friend (as you should always do if possible) and then make sure they're aware your trying a new exercise and RECOMMEND THIS CHANNEL TO THEM!!!

The floor press saved my shoulders and rotators when they are jacked up and needs rest.
1：55 that dude's eyes seems hes afraid to be killed in anytime
He's not a guest on this show. He's an hostage 😅
He just found out the cops put a ticket on his car
@@gadriver 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
One of the forgotten bench press variations... This exercise helped me put 20lbs on my bench in less than 2 months as a novice lifter
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I couldn’t refocus after the jeans and sandals combo caught my eye
It’s Matt wenning. That’s his thing.
Besides, those are slides, a man’s shoe. Sandals are for hippies 🙄
Seconds after this video gets posted and already a dislike? Must have been someone who's world record Matt beat.
Matt loves that ohearn athletics t-shirt
Gotta rep the best in the game, also we shoot a few videos in one sessions so that's why the shirt stays the same every few videos when we don't have other options.
Intern Harvey returns! I'm rewatching the video to count how many times he blinks...
just assembled my own flat floor bench press (using car support columns max 2 tons, 37 cm max height) plus a bar with 80kg total weights ;) Also nice to see the Bulgarian flag in the video ;)
Floor pressing today. Love Matt’s videos!
💪💪💪💪💪
Floor press is helping me alot
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength more info here brother!!
Great exercise, the use and the narrow grip are all things I do on this exercise. I agree with everything here.
You can donit safer by using plates larger than the length of your arm. So you don't smack them at the bottom.
If you get the size right, it's like benching without the need for a spotter. Much safer.
Just a personal anecdote. I used this for two pretty long training blocks because I moved abroad and had to wait a while to get a bench. So no bench or much space available at the time. I made rapid enough progress on it, but when I did get a bench and started benching again I found that my benching was actually somewhat reduced. I'd become accustomed to the different range of motion. Now I know you say bench is somewhat more of an arm strength exercise, and I'd say floor press had a good effect on my triceps strength, but when benching I immediately felt the need to employ chest and shoulders in everything up to the 2/3 point. So it doubtless helped with lockout strength, but seemed to have little to no effect for the first part of a benching movement.
Well sad to say you did it wrong.
@@WenningStrength Maybe, maybe not. Off the chest part of BP is a matter of chest/shoulder (back) for raw lifting. I like floor press and I still do it (have used it for 30 years), but I find it's better for upper mid-range problems and lockout issues. I'm not saying anyone is wrong, just noting what happened for me.
Amazing video. Very thoroughly explained. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all!
Why does that guy look so scared of Matt?
He’s just screaming internally so hard
Brilliant video, as questions came to mind, it was the very next topic you ended up covering. Great work.
Very good 👍
Thank you...
Great video. Thank you
Another great video! Thanks for making these videos AND engaging your viewers - even on off-topic questions like "where you get your jeans?" I'm glad someone asked because this is a quality-of-life question I never thought to ask, much less expect an answer to. Now if you have a recommendation for dress pants...
Could you please do a video on proper goodmorning form for accessory work ?

What do you do if youve got no floor?
Good info sir !!!
I get the theory behind floor presses but when I do them for some strange reason the bar is almost on my chest. That's why I never do them.
One other huge benefit not mentioned, and the main reason why I use the floor press, is to strengthen the actual pressing movement. Your legs need to be straight on the floor. This prevents you from using the legs as leverage and teaches you to focus strictly on pushing through your back and tri’s.
Doing this was a huge improvement on my bench.
I’ll do my set-up as if I’m on a bench: kness up, dig my scaps and traps in the floor, unrack then put my legs out. The eccentric & concentric is strictly relying on your back & arms, and delts to an extent.
🏆🏆🏆🏆
I love floor pressing lol my triceps turned off once and I just let the bar fall and it didn’t hurt nothing.

Go Israel! Hey Matt, when I do these the bar touches my chest. Is this still a useful excercise if this is happening?
Come ask questions on patreon brother. It’s how we find the channel

great video matt, as usual. what i really wanna know is, where someone with legs like yours finds jeans?
Stefan Haas stretchy Lucky Jeans
@@WenningStrength Via Costco?
Hey Matt, do you still wear flip flops when it's winter and snowing?
So, retract the scapula like you would a normal bench press, or not?
Great question !! We answer everything on patreon my friend
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength
Also..what is your estimate of WHAT % of your regular bench poundages would the Floor Press be?
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength
Should you be able to press more or less than your max bench?
Dk K 10-15% less is typical
@@Roadto-zb4vu haha my chest weak i bench way more on floor press than regular bench
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength
So it’s mostly a triceps move? Would you compare it to the reverse grip chest press?
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength
Now I know how to do it! Great video!
www.patreon.com/wenningstrength
I don’t know why but I feel a bone in my back digging into the floor which is very uncomfortable when doing this don’t get that doing bench press though I think it’s because the unrack gets me out of position
GetOhn thanks will try
That Bulgarian flag in the background... Is it someone on your team that put it there? 👀
Yep!!!!! Homage to the golden Olympic lifting days
Some people say that one of the benefits of exercises like this and the box squat is that they "break up the concentric and eccentric chains." What does this mean?
I think it means limiting the stretch reflex of the muscles
@@uirmeg word up, thanks for the reply

👍👍👍
How do you set up bands for the floor press?
Hang them from above! Invert the effects of the bands to change the motor pattern and environment the muscle is in.
I’ll show on another video
To add resistance? Get some of the Rogue mini bands; perfect for the floor press and also good for deadlifts as well.
drive.google.com/a/ualberta.ca/file/d/143SB6xfj20Buwdv548YSwrE52JESCAbp/view?usp=drivesdk See if that link works; that is what my floor press setup with bands looks like.
what if you can touch your chest in a floor press?
Pin press on the floor
William Hendrix it can still be used effectively. You can switch your grips around so it doesn’t touch your chest but the added difficult of the pause and lack of leg drive would still be there
Rob Alder cool, it seems to work well for starting strength for me, also takes some strain off the hips if they are taking a beating from constant arching, etc
🤘🤘🤘
so i get tight shoulders from bench press even tho i bench correctly. can this be lack of muscle mass? like my arms have to travel way back my body to touch my chest if so then i have to use boards right?
Make sure your scapulae are pulled back, and arch your mid back.
@@kodiknott7418 yeah thats what i meant with benching correctly. i have monkey arms (while relaxed they almost touch my kness) so i think maybe im moving my elbows too far away
Doubt muscle mass will make a big difference. I have put on nearly 90 lbs body weight since I started lifting and it maybe took 1/2 inch from my bench ROM. When I was as having shoulder issues I only did decline bench. That helps with the ROM. Also dumbbells are good. Only reason you need to be married to traditional bb bench is if you compete.
Matt Wenning? More like Popeye Wenning

You never discussed how heavy you should be going on this movement
My man!!! Direct all questions to Patreon!!

Matt - I LOVE your stuff...but RIGHT before I watched this I watched some vids of you at Westside doing Floor Press...and it looked like you were bouncing it off the floor...definitely no pausing..which is exact opposite of what you are teaching here.....so would you say that your approach to it has changed to incorporate the pause...and if so...why?
I was there 15 years ago
@@WenningStrength I know...but what Im saying is that back then you werent pausing between reps...so what made you change your thinking and technique?
Could Be 6 Crossfitters! Or 3 Crossfitters & 3 People Who Don't Lift! Or 6 People Who Don't Lift! This Number Will Go Up!😂🤬🎅🏻🤜🏻
Is it only me or does anyone else have the bar basically touching their chest even if it is close grip
Outstanding tips thanks Matt! Down voters piss off!
When you give away info for free someone has to get upset right!? Thanks for watching!
