Smolov Jr is a great way to induce aches and pains that you don't want. There's other, better ways of doing it.

Lol, so much this. We 1990 again with actual video cameras? Cell phone propped up on another bench or box. Or... just ask a stranger to take 30 seconds between sets to film you.

Work the weight up slowly. Grab some 2.5lb plates if you need to. Increase volume—instead of just doing 5x5 or whatever keep adding sets on the back end. I like to do a pyramid type set so my heaviest will be set 3 or 4 and then I take weight off for the last set or two. Even if you’ve done “all” your sets, just take a little weight off and work your way all the way down to 135 working towards failure.

Then just make sure you’re getting enough protein and sleep.
And relief washes over me in an awesome wave

Made my tris stronger, supplemental exercises stronger and I did speed training - no bands just light weight. I used to be able to basically through 220lb in the air like a toy. The real fun is heading to 4 plates not eating real food.

I did Smolov Jr bench and high bar squats concurrently and made out okay as well...

Then again, I benefit from not being that strong for my weight. I think a lot of the hate for Smolov is that (a) the sets/reps/% are a little bit arbitrary, and (b) it's a lot of volume. So, if you're an elite powerlifter, it would be extremely difficult to recover from the work load.


What's the general program you're going to use, op? Just days/week, linear?

3 days a week. Kind of conjugate style with short peaking blocks. A few heavy sets per week with plenty of volume

Surprised you like this bet... He could run a peaking program get it and then not be able to maintain it a weak or two later.

If you are going a real strength gain route you would likely lose.

That's the name of the game in strength sports brother

I'm doing this to teach OP and the misc a few lessons. Mainly, I want them to learn to plan out their training better. There's no magic in programming. Its simply looking beyond the workout that you're currently doing

Look at most of the advice ITT. Do this exercise, try this rep range, move to this split. Its all based around a single workout. You can't achieve long term goals by looking 2 feet in front of your face

IMO you should be very form conscious. There's lots of small tweaks and minor differences you'll see with bench press form a lot of that is maximizing your bio mechanical advantages such as the width you grip the bar, the point at which you touch your chest (whether it be higher or lower), lat engagement, proper elbow flair, ect...

Your form may look good and may be "correct" but it may not be the most efficient for your leverages, tweaking and perfecting your form so that it becomes as efficient as possible for your body type will likely make more of a difference than any program could.

When I broke 315 it was kind of weird.

I was "stuck" at 295 (max, not for reps). One day I was maxing out at 295 and threw it up so damn easy I did a double. That got me excited so I threw 315 on the bar thinking it was "my day." Sure enough, it went up. It felt so good that I put 325 on the bar and did that too. So I went from stuck at 295 to 325 just like that. I failed when I put 335 on the bar.
ALL I ASK IS ALL YOU GOT FOR AS LONG AS IT TAKES

Great advice.

When I train people, I always ask for videos every session. Minor tweaks and a lot of practicing adds up quickly

Went to gym and benched 315. Didn't record it. About to go to other gym and try to prop my phone up and do it. Couldn't do it bc I asked a random for a spot and it's not like he can video tape too (friend couldn't make it this morning). Hope Angus is Peppered

315 for a natty is repectable. Only a fraction of natties with average genetics will have the dedication to reach it.
