I never commented but I wanted to say thank you. I ran your program without deviating for 8 months in 2021, surpassed my initial goal of 315. Went from a sloppy max of 215 to 335 paused. Bodyweight unintentionally went from 178 to 206 by eating whatever I wanted in that time frame but the one thing I thought was interesting was how in sync you feel with your body during bench pressing once you start benching 3x a week. Highly recommend the routine to everyone if you’re looking to increase your bench press in a short duration.
@@cryptosir2025 Because people don't care at all what others lift, why should they. He is strong in the bench yeah, but he looks like a toothpick. It is the only reason it is impressive really. I am 225 lbs at 6'0 and reps 315 for 6 on the incline bench, I don't do flat at all, because I lift for mass. Flat and decline won't build a solid full chest. You will lack upper chest. Flat bench is better for triceps with closer grip, than it is for chest growth.
315 to 330 for 5 in a couple weeks is a huge jump already... I suspect your max has already gone up if you test it without doing a 5-rep max effort like that. The fact you did 370 that easily after 330 for 5 says a lot too about your true max.
It is great you have a gym where you have members who are their to train and not just walk and talk and watch everyone else work out. It is ok to catch a look at someone who is pushing weight if you look in the mirror. I see too many older guys at my gym who are their to hang out and not work out. That is what the Rec center at a retirement community is for.
Long, Im happy you're getting that strength again, you look stronger than ever, your new videos are one of the best part of my days, keep it up, you're my inspiration 👏
It's nice to see you're finally implementing progressive overload on your training. Always wondered how much you could do for 3 and 5 reps. Good luck on hitting 405 again!
tell your boy crocks and bench pressing CAN NOT go together lol. i’ve seen some of your videos years ago. glad your still doing your thing man. strong as hell!
collin weng posted a prank inside of a commercial gym for bench. that "challenge/prank" would be great for you to do since your weight/strength ratio is insane
@@Brey Interesting, thanks for the quick reply!! I started working out 10 months ago and my OHP feels WAY weaker than bench. I'm at 40 kg / 88 lbs 3-4 reps at most with 1,89m / 77 kg. I only have 40 kg for bench as well at home atm, but if our man does more than double that weight on the bench, this motivates me to purchase more plates! :) Still can't wrap my head around how he does it. He's a nephilim giant haha!
I thought that I was strong for my size when I got 295 at 155lbs. You make the old me feel unaccomplished. The only lift that I could turn heads with was a weighted dip.... Hanging 3 plates and a quarter for sets of 8 is impressive until you realize that being lighter is an advantage for dips! lol
@@steved8567 yea that’s funny. I mean if I move up in weight for the first time, 96% is the hardest but when I do it again next week, I typically complete it and usually fail on the second 86%. I think it’s probably cuz I get so gassed pushing almost my max… maybe I need more rest between the sets? Idk lol
@@OhmegadJT Yeah, strange, the 5 and 3 rep sets are usually the easiest for me... With my 86% I can normally squeeze out an extra rep. I take about 4 minute rests between sets... especially the heavier ones.
Everyday is different brother. I usually find the triples hardest. When you’re having an extra hard day (you’ll know based on how the sets/reps move), take an extra minute; it works!
Yes sir, I am hitting that every session. Fridays have always been the toughest and Mondays have always been the easiest. The weekend off period helps, but I found benching only 2 days a week doesn’t help so it’s a fine balance imo. MWF benching has worked best for me.
Regular portion sizes, 3 meals a day, little to no snacking between meals. All is fair game except for pizza, soda/energy drinks and deep fried foods. I don’t track calories or protein or anything. No supplements or shakes or anything. Just plain ol food.
Did a lighter mid week workout and finally hit 275 x 6 today. Not sure if it was an anomaly but will not push so hard during middle of week to see if I can keep gaining strength.
I have just come across this channel. I am sure this has been asked a gazillion times before, but whats the reason the channel owner does not squat or deadlift?
first time seeing video from you channel your strong as fuck also I might be wrong or right this the gym some of the delray misfit guys train at anyway keep up the good work
Okay I knew I’ve seen you before I will say I am the same weight as you 69.4kg and I bench 270(123kg roughly) I’m training to hit 315 by the end of the year and my dream bench is 410 I was wondering (I’m only 21) if there’s any advice to be given or like how you achieved the strength you have
You’re definitely on your way there, Tyler! Only advice I can give is to stay consistent, stay injury free and follow a good program that works for you. You may need to try a few out before figuring out what your body responds best to. Good luck!
Do you guys want the body which looks like can lift 300 pounds but actually lift 100 pounds; Or his body looks like can only lift 100 pounds but actually 300 pounds
Bro if you could help me I would greatly appreciate it. For some reason I switched gyms and I’ve been having a horrible time trying to keep my shoulder blades retracted in these new benches idk why. Any suggestions on fixing that ?
Sorry Isaiah, not something I can help with virtually. I’d have to lay down on it and see what I can come up with before trying to advise you on it. Maybe try to grab a personal trainer there for advice?
He doesnt train deadlift and he only squats sometimes lightly. He has been benching big numbers since highschool? And winning competitions its safe to say hes natural. He doesnt compete and is over 30, has a family. Theres no incentive to take PED's
@@Robin-hv5tv most were on peds in high school. Still suspicious. Usually 140 to 150kg is a 1 rep max for majority of peak naturals. 120 to 130kg is usually where it stops for reps. For this guys body weight I don't honestly believe it.

Your comment is good advertisment. Where can I find the programm?
Bro where did you get that program?
@Allan M seriously bro we need an answer
Great work, Allan! So happy it worked for you. Keep up the strong work 💪
For those asking, you can find his program online via searching UFPwrLifter bench press program. Good luck gents.
The sudden transition from peaceful family filming, to absolutely ripping it at the gym is mind-blowing and phenomenal
Lmao
6:17 that guy's reaction in the luminous tank top says it all LOL
I honestly don't get how every single person doesn't react like that.. at least those who haven't seen him before.

watch his older vids brother
@@jacobrobles9176 I know that he did that in the past. That’s irrelevant when talking about “max” in the context of your current programming/lifts
@@trtnec True, he's not at his peak anymore, different priorities and all that. But still crazy.

@@UFpwrLifter No problem
You inspired me to push myself, thank you for uploading.
4:08 😳😳
I genuinely I appreciate your videos..most calming and genuinely impressive lifting videos
Love the grind! Awesome to see you moving up the numbers
These videos are super motivating, thanks for the uploads!
Love the interaction that you have at the gym.
Impressive, to me you're the bench king bro.
RAR RAR that bench press boi! I’m just glad you ain’t giving in been a while watching you progress
Could you break the NFL combine rep record with 225?
We would love to see just one competition!
3:50 perfect spot right there.
tell your boy crocks and bench pressing CAN NOT go together lol. i’ve seen some of your videos years ago. glad your still doing your thing man. strong as hell!

Getting back to your old form, Awesome
Your back !!
Great spotter. He doesn't yank the bar up as soon as he sees you're struggling.
I liked seeing you actually use the spotter on the last rep
I def have to do that more. That’s where the gains come from!
The PERFECT bench press TOTAL STOP at bottom and power it all the way up VERY HARD TO DO and VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beast mode unlocked - level Asian.
Living legend
Love the content brotha
So strong man! How do you keep up your strength all year round?
Consistency and form. He's been bench pressing since 1998.
Deloads man and dont push too hard for too long. Fatigue kills long term progress
@@Brey thank you brother
Thank you! I try not to give it a chance to forget what the weight feels like.
Pompano were great this year. I fished a lot a bit south of melbourne. Best eating fish ever!
Yes!!! Our favorite 💯
Slay it brother!!!!!
One question: any chance you could do an Overhead Press video?
He has done OHP when he maxed out february of last year. He did 165 for 2 reps.

were you always this strong? what did you start of as max bench?
Long, have you ever thought about buying a pair of wrist wraps?
No sir, I am stubborn and try to be as raw as possible. Don’t know why, just how I’ve always been.
Always impressive 😉. Your videos courage me.
Nice🔥🔥
Question, are you still pushing 365 pounds or more on the bench press 3 times a week? I would think that 3rd workout in 5 days would be the toughest.
When I ran his program, it definitely was. His program also has an adjusted rep scheme for Fridays to make it easier if you need it.
Yes sir, I am hitting that every session. Fridays have always been the toughest and Mondays have always been the easiest. The weekend off period helps, but I found benching only 2 days a week doesn’t help so it’s a fine balance imo. MWF benching has worked best for me.
My Vietnamese brother. I'm 108kg and can only bench 70kg, you tank.
What's up with that plate on the right drooping?
Very nice,you recommend 3x a week,what would you recommend for a 62yr old who cant get over 245?
Do you ever implement DB bench or Incline?
You are a beast !! but can you post some other workouts too
Any chance you could link a video or let us know what your diet looks like

I've hit a plateau, not sure what to do other than maybe taking a break to let my body recover. Stuck at 275 x 5 at 175-180lb
Do not train to failure every time. Train about RPE 7-8
@@ЖивојинМилутиновић Thanks, haven't heard of this concept. I will give it a shot the next month or two and see what happens.
Very strict tricep pressdowns might help
@@dwaynejacobs9558 Thanks, I do feel my triceps could be stronger seeing how much Long can life with overhead triceps.

The asian bro repping out 205 at 6:00 wasn't looking too shabby either
Yes that’s Silvano. He’s strong and getting stronger. Just hit 270 recently.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Haven’t seen you videos I no a while last time I thought you were up to 4 plates. Have your lifts been steady or gone down a bit?
Gone down since the 4 plates days.
Any tips on set structure for a higher bench? Mine is currently 245lb x2 at 175lbs but after watching your videos I have ways to go.

Wow, dude
waiting for a new pr brother... your best pr is 405 if i remember correctly .. we want to see 405+ again!! in god speed inchala
Thank you brother. I appreciate your support and good vibes as always.
brother what did u do that greatly helped you climb from 225 to 315?
More or less of the same, just kept adding weight when my body was getting stronger. ruclips.net/video/tsX-ShMsP9s/видео.html
Very impressive lifts, is there a reason why you dont lockout on every single rep ?
Less potential joint pain
I have just come across this channel. I am sure this has been asked a gazillion times before, but whats the reason the channel owner does not squat or deadlift?

I do similar reps when I bench, but do you always go for a max weight or when do you do it? Recently I pr after a long time 10lb more!
I almost never max out, but I do always hit heavy single rep sets that are close to my max.
@@UFpwrLifter Thank you for the reply and feedback!
Do you still work on your overhead press?
No sir
why is it that he doesn't go full range of motion sometimes? except when he does one rep max

Where can I find his bench program?
ruclips.net/video/tsX-ShMsP9s/видео.html
I think it's because he has a big chest He can lift so much
How many rest days a week ?
I bench MWF.
Are you gonna compete anytime soon?
No intention of doing a competition
have you been able to hit 400 again? It looks like you're getting stronger as quickly as you're getting weaker, so it evens out and plateauing
I got close sometime last year, but got injured a little after. If I had to guess, I’m around 390 right now.
Bro you are ant man 🤣🤣 nice lifts
