      I don’t think 405 natural is insane. I think most people lack dedication, overcomplicate their bench program, and don’t eat enough. Myself and 1 friend of mine were able to hit 405 within 1 year by following a very simple 5x5 bench program.

      @@dn3772 I increased my bench from 335lbs to 375lbs in about 1-1.5 months by really focusing on frequency and specificity. I went from benching 2x/week to 5x/week (31 sets total), reduced volume on other lifts to recover better (only 6 sets of back per week for example), and prioritized accessories directly improving my bench (doing more sets of bench instead of chest flies for example). Switching to a gym with proper benches also made a big difference.

    It's taken me a year to put 10 lbs on my bench because of some pec pain on my right side. I think I've finally gotten rid of it, and 405 might be less than half a year out. Currently at 385 right now with some great training momentum, I'll be maxing out again in about 7 weeks. 405 takes so much dedication to hit, it's unbelievable you can do it at your bodyweight.

    0:41 what do you call that bench-chest-block-pad-thing? My right shoulder gets pain when my shoulder blade gets protracted (pulled back) a little too far. I admit, I can still do flat press, but I have to be EXTRA careful. Incline press requires less protraction and not issue. This pad could be a safety buffer on flat press so I dont accidentally go to far back… even if I reduce a tiny bit of ROM, i think its negligible. Why is Alex using?

      its a bench blok, used to reduce rom and use extra weight, its a variation of bench

    Now we need a road to 315lbs OHP and 700lb deadlift

      315 ohp is miles harder than a 405 bench, probably similar to a 500lb bench.

    How much do you think the weighted dips carry over to bench ? I managed 315 with no bench training my first time trying it. Now ive added weighted push ups to my calisthenics to see if 405 is attainable indirectly.

    • @AlexLeonidas
      @AlexLeonidas  9 дней назад +3

      Well look, sounds like it carries over very high to you. I'd say the total load of a dip is a good predictor of long term bench strength. Having done 255 in the 180s, it makes sense being in the 400s.

    • @takeiteasy8847
      @takeiteasy8847 9 дней назад

      Depends on the person. I have a weighted dip total of 300 pounds (bodyweight + plates) for 5-7 reps but I can manage just a triple with 220 pounds because I am not interested in it and therefore not train it.

    When should I use elbow sleeves for benching? Does it help move weight or is it just for safety and tendonitis?
