Why are feet important? - Stability and tightness - Wide(er) foot position for maximum stability 2:22 - Whole foot is pushed in to the ground for leg drive (cue: drive toes to the end of the shoe) 2:47 - Knees are below hips for maximum tension 3:54 If you have discomfort whilst in the wide stance, use the couch stretch seen here 7:03 for improving mobility
A new Pillar series by JTS? Yes, please! I liked the video before I watched it. Always great stuff. Can't wait for the other parts coming out. I hope there will be a deadlift pillar series after the bench series. Thanks for the great and helpful content!
Great video. I just turned turned 18 a couple months ago and am attempting a 1rm of 100kg on Sunday so I'm trying to give my self the biggest chance of hitting it. I've never be sure on foot placement as I've always had narrow positioning and have always been on my toes, I didn't realize how much using you whole foot can be beneficial.
Chad and Marissa - you guys have given my bench really such a huge boost - I was stuck on certain weight (155) for long and simply by using all pillars I can tell you my lifts went up and I just feel so damn confident
Love these series. I don't compete and train at home alone (as all training should be--lone wolf style 😂) and squat series helped me so much. On to killing bench!
I've seen your squat school and pillars videos but can you also talk about the overhead squat, just plain regular squat with no dropping or balancing, for instance what muscles to use, head position and torso position compared to back and front squat etc. I've never seen anybody qualified talked in depth about it
Marisa's trainers are tight as shit son. Anyone know what they are? (Also this video was great, the 5 pillars of squat technique helped me so much. I hope this one does too.)
Zak Hines she's said before her feet are really small so might be kids shoes. They don't make fly highs for women like that 😡 unfortunately. I just looked. Yup. Adidas NEO BB9TIS Boys' Basketball Shoes
I didn´t follow the bit about long shin versus short shin. Do you mean that people with long shins will have there feet further forward and closer together and people with short shins will have their feet further back and out? What happens if you have particularly long femurs in realtion to everything (torso and shin)? thanks!
You probs lower the bar too high on the chest utilising your upper chest more on normal bench press and technique probs inferior for strength to ur inclien bench
I know this is a bench vid, but will Marisa ever do a cycle of sumo just to see what happens? I know she's said she mainly pulls conventional cause it looks more badass (much respek)
xinsanedefeatx had to train a bunch of sumo before nationals to work around sciatica issues but conventional is still the ticket for her. She’s relatively long legged or so she tells me.
I seem to be causing spinal pressure in my neck when bench pressing. This causes some injuries that leave me unable to lift much for a week. Any suggestions?
I would say.. Try to warmp up with exercises that extend your spine (cat-camel, push your chin into your chest to extend the spine, look up as well,) and also when done with a set of benching.. Try hanging from a bar to decompress all that tension. Live Strong
How do I work on torso "snapinhalfability" ? Marisa and Sean Noriega can snap themselves in half for the set up. Are there any exercises to help this? I want to maximize bench
@Karl J -"This is the most idiotic movement in all of weightlifting" -I'm sure you say that because you suck at benching, The bench is far more difficult and complex than the squat and deadlift, it also takes longer to progress so just keep your opinion to yourself :)
I think most who say sumo is cheating are doing so sarcastically or from a place of ignorance. Surprisingly, Marisa likely had the 2nd longest bench ROM among IPF Worlds competitors in her class but also had the 3rd heaviest bench and was far and away the most muscular.
I wish you did this with someone regular height. :/ This is not that easy to visualize when it comes to what it should look like with someone over 6 feet.

thank you so much bruda
Yessssssssss, time to break that plateau
try dianabol.
"she's cold I'm sweating... Stuff happens"
Wait wut? Hahahaha
Great, was waiting for this series! I hope in the future you will make deadlift and ohp pillars too.

yes your team is the best fitness source on you tube
These series are absolutely superb

Yaaaay!! At last! Thank you for another fantastic video.

scorpleeon but does the lift even count if other people aren’t mirin
ervin B so you're saying cats don't count? 😼
Are you one of those people who pretends to be a stoic anime character?
Brother in 2020 , training at home is a norm haha
Great detailed information and examples shown with Marisa. Keep up the great content.
Can't wait for more!
Brilliant as always
Cold and sweaty, it's a lifestyle.
these videos are so good.
Thanks for the bench press video. It's been a while.
I'm looking forward to this series.
Thanks JTS! Moving my feet out a little wider really helped with keeping my butt on the bench!
Legit took notes on this. Thanks for sharing and educating!
Thank you for this video
Brilliant stuff keep it coming
Bro, that bench position is perfect. I'm gonna have to work to a good position to press more.
great video!

Thank you for that.
THANKS CHAD! WOO!
awesome content
PLease would you add these to their own Playlist - same for the squat pillars. Then they're easy to re-watch in order.
Squat Pillars is in a playlist. This one will be too, once there is more than 1 video.
So it is! Sorry, couldn't see it when I looked.
ruclips.net/video/oEy5WFr-CDA/видео.html
Sailor shoes and lifting rules, it's a lifestyle!
Makes sense....much like the squat, people with longer legs/shins/femurs need to spread their legs out wider for more stability. Thank you.
Thank you for another great video. This will definitely help me with my bench. Looking forward to the rest of the series. OHP next?
FIIIINALLYY!
Grandísimo aprendiendo español!
Bring Marisa the “5 Pillars of Being Comfortable Around a Camera”! 😂😂
Markell's Flattop Lol it’s awkward when you just gotta sit there while someone is talking.
Marisa Inda I thought you did a fabulous job
Psyched for this
Marisa's trainers are tight as shit son. Anyone know what they are?
(Also this video was great, the 5 pillars of squat technique helped me so much. I hope this one does too.)
Zak Hines she's said before her feet are really small so might be kids shoes. They don't make fly highs for women like that 😡 unfortunately. I just looked.
Yup. Adidas NEO BB9TIS Boys' Basketball Shoes
Zak Hines they are adidas boys shoes that I bought in the children’s section. I do t believe they make this style in adult size
Ah thats sucks, but lucky for you though! Cheaper trainers and good taste in them. Colour me jealous.
Campeona* del mundo
What shoes is Marisa wearing? They're amazing! Do they come in a men's variant?
DevilsRejection they are adidas boys basketball shoes-children’s so they don’t make them in adult sizes that I know of

Rikke Fremo Tønnesen If you have longer chins, you need more mobility to get the legs under you rather in front.
SHES CUTE AND YOR VIDEOS ROCK THANKS
5:40 that position feels so unstable and as if there's no leg drive
Marisa is so beautiful and strong ^.^ I got a girl crush on her :3
No
How does the all foot in the ground create more leg drive than just toes? I feel I can get way tighter legs using only my toes
For some reason I happen to be stronger on the incline bench 😅and would this series apply to the incline too?
You probs lower the bar too high on the chest utilising your upper chest more on normal bench press and technique probs inferior for strength to ur inclien bench
When did using ur legs on bench start
Marisa is Super Hott😆
I know this is a bench vid, but will Marisa ever do a cycle of sumo just to see what happens? I know she's said she mainly pulls conventional cause it looks more badass (much respek)

Juggernaut Training Systems awesome! Tell her to post more training vids on her channel!

R their shirts ever re-stocking ?

Marissa, ID on the sneakers?
Anyone know the shoes Marissa is wearing? They are super fresh.
ark
I prefer her freshness after taking them off though...
👍
Sick penny loafers 👞

Such a classic female response " im cold"
no shit sherlock, smaller body size and low bf
-> less heat production
Women's bodies don't handle cold as well as guys
@@anneliesespence833 Women tend to be higher body fat than men. Chad and Marrisa are extreme examples
@@mustang8206 xD its just funny calm down
happy feet
Niceeeee :)))))))
Sweet loafers Chad
you are so american man haha! Thanks for the tips!
So the Pillar men got their training from here.
clicked the sumo deadlift link #4 and landed here..? what
clicked it from where?
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems in the app, i clicked the 4th link in pillar of sumo deadlifting and got sent here
@@horseliver338 can you report a bug on that screen please
some say sumo is cheating but what about big chest (breast) and huge arch??
I think most who say sumo is cheating are doing so sarcastically or from a place of ignorance. Surprisingly, Marisa likely had the 2nd longest bench ROM among IPF Worlds competitors in her class but also had the 3rd heaviest bench and was far and away the most muscular.
Ya probably cheating realistically, but not in comp. Here's some info: www.t-nation.com/training/fake-strength-stop-arching-the-bench-press
Dont laugh about me but I actually bench better in my weightlifting shoes
Not uncommon at all.
Chad...your shoes make me uncomfortable and idk why
I wish you did this with someone regular height. :/ This is not that easy to visualize when it comes to what it should look like with someone over 6 feet.
Marisa is bae👅
This is the most idiotic movement in all of weightlifting.
