My road to a 200kg Competition RAW Bench Press
Hello everybody.

I like this forum and have been reading on it for some time now. So I thought I should make an account and start posting some here.

I'm gonna try something new and bench 6-7 times a week, hence the journal name. I've tried benching 5 times a week before with good results but now I'm gonna go a little bit further. My biggest focus is on the bench press but I will try to get my deadlift up without getting back pain. I've had back troubles for a lot of years so hopefully I can train deadlift for a period without getting hurt.

I got some advice from a guy who has been benching 6-7 times a week for a year now with great results, so it's gonna be really interesting too see how it goes. I will mostly bench press with my feet in the air because I feel it works the best for me.

Age: 24
Bodyweight: Around 90kgs

My long term goal is to get a 200kg bench press with a pause raw.

I will copy in my last weeks of training

Training summary for the bench press week 29

I only count the worksets for the statistics. But since I always do the same warm-up before the worksets that parameter doesn't change.

Number of training sessions: 6
Total volume: 16672kg
Average weight: 138kg
Average reps per set: 4,86 reps
Total number of reps: 141 reps
Total number of sets: 30 sets

Only the bench press were included in these calculations.

Next week I plan to have the volume lower and the intensity/average weight higher. I aim to get the average number of reps per set under 4. So my plan is to wave intensity and volume every other week and see what happens. Right now it feels good so it will be very interesting too see how much I can gain from this if I can keep it up.

I'll be following, it looks like you have a really interesting set-up. Do you do feet-up solely because it's easier on your back?

Thanks!

The biggest reasion I do benching with my feet-up is because the training effect is much much higher for me. For some reason I have a hard time increasing my regular bench press with bench pressing haha. So I have to do lots of dips, triceps, shoulders and chest exercises to be in shape. But when I bench with my feet-up without leg drive I almost don't need any assistance exercises. Last year I've been benching with my feet down all year and the results wasn't so good. So now I'm going back to what works the best for me which is training with my feet-up most of the time and then a couple of weeks before competition I will put them down to get my technique in place.

I never do FU-benchpress and have never considered it. You still have a good arch doing FU - impressive. Is it something that you will recommend trying out?

What about them squats?

Thank you  :)

I personally love doing FU-benchpress. I you have solid technique with regular bench press I can recommend FU-bench. If you try it my tip is to focus on to have a tight upper back (shoulder blades together etc.) and not allow your shoulders to roll forward in the bottom. With good technique there is less wear and tear plus you will also get really good upper body control. Your pecs really have to work hard at the bottom och your upper back has to stay tight by it's own (no legdrive to help you here). So I think that's a big factor why it works so great for me and others who have tried it.

Here is a really inspiring interview with a great bencher who always train with his feet up:

@Green snake press is essentially a band press with a green band/elastic. The reason why I call it that is somewhat far out.

Training summary for the bench press week 31

I only count the worksets for the statistics. But since I always do the same warm-up before the worksets that parameter doesn't change.

Number of training sessions: 7
Total volume: 21676kg (32876kg  if you calculate everything from 50% and up)
Average weight: 138kg
Average reps per set: 5,27 reps
Total number of reps: 174 reps (286 reps  if you calculate everything from 50% and up)
Total number of sets: 33 sets (61 sets if you calculate everything from 50% and up)



Only the bench press were included in these calculations.

Congrats on the PR! Sketchy benches are no fun, but they seem to be the norm in most gyms...

Thanks! :) Yeah I hate this gym. When everybody benches their right arm is lower than the left and that causes problems. I feel a little bit sore/irritated in my right pec right next to the sternum after the benches yesterday. So today I will switch out the bench for some military presses instead to get some rest there.

Re: My road to a 200kg Competition RAW Bench Press
Training summary for the bench press week 32

I only count the worksets for the statistics. But since I always do the same warm-up before the worksets that parameter doesn't change.

Number of training sessions: 5 (6 if you count military press on saturday)
Total volume: 14152kg
Average weight: 148kg
Average reps per set: 3,88 reps
Total number of reps: 97 reps
Total number of sets: 25 set

Only the bench press were included in these calculations.

Volume, total number of reps and total number of sets is a little lower due to the saturday session because I switched out bench for military press.

Korean-bench is a variation where I pause on the way down in my weakest point of the lift (somewhere like 4-5cm of the chest). Then I bring the bar down and pause on my chest. After that I press up 4-5 cm and pause there for a moment before I continue the press until lockout. That is one rep.

I could film sometime this week when I perform the korean bench so you can see. I will travel to England tomorrow and stay until thursday. So don't know when I can get the next session in.
