Build a Bigger Bench Press

Here is the third bench press video tip from my buddy Rob King…
In this video Rob explains 2 very important things that will help you Build a Bigger Bench!

1.  Bar Placement On The Chest

2.  Bar Path aka Bar Trajectory

Even though the Bench Press is a basic lift, there is a lot to doing it correctly. 

Each of these little tips and tricks will improve your strength and help with injury prevention. Putting the tips together will add up to a Bigger Bench Press for you!

Bench Press Tips, Lower Body

 

Here in part 2 of 3 Bench Press video tips that I have for you,
my friend Rob King explains correct lower body positioning.  
 
Having your body positioning correct is a MUST for heavy lifting.
When you get this right, you will feel more power through your whole
body and immediately be able to add weight to your bench press!

Rob knows his stuff when it comes to Bench Pressing.
At his best he has pressed 405lb for three reps…Raw
without a bench shirt.
 
I hope you enjoy the video!

PS 3 Oberservations from the plane
1. Middle Seat SUCKS!
2. If your late for boarding & just about miss your flight you may get bumped to Business Class, much better view!
3. Flying into Vegas at night with Zepplin on XM Radio is just awesome!

Warrior Built on the Road!

Hey gang,
 
Last weekend I was in Orlando Florida, with about 40 other Fitness Pros taking part
 in a Mastermind group coaching group.
 
The mastermind meetings on Friday and Saturday were awesome. And then I took a 
day off on Sunday to visit Universal Studios!
(The Terminator show in 3D was wild!! Check it out if you get the chance!)    
Florida weather is great this time of year, and I love going on trips…but If you do
any amount of traveling, you know how easy it is to fall off the wagon with the
nutrition and training while away from home! 
 
Some of my personal training clients have told me they like to take the Warrior Built DVD with them on  vacations/business trips so they can squeeze in a fast workout right in their hotel room.  
 
So even though I was on the road, I still managed to get in some great workouts.  
The hotel that we stayed in actually had a decent gym….plus, I decided to put my
buddy Rob through a Warrior Built workout :)
Check it out!

 
Oh yeah, also here’s a quick clip of me jumping out of the hotel pool just for fun!
I’ve done some box jumps in my training before but never tired it out of water!
 

Take care,

Andy
