ChrisJenkins398.5kg

Some pic's from the world's in Belgium. Ive been working on my bench press over the last year with the help of Dougie Black and it is slowly increasing. I find the more bodyweight I put on the bigger my bench goes. I get about a pb of 5kgs for every kg of bodyweight I put on.

Here Im benching with my lift's of 180kgs, 200kgs and 210kgs.

I failed the last bench just before the lockout. A lesson learned for me..

I rushed the last attempt, didnt set up correctly and get my breathing right. I didnt take a breath before taking the bar from the spotter and I didnt fill my lungs with air. I do this to protect myself if the bar falls on my chest and to get a better explosion from the bottom part of the lift.
