    Bench Pressing

    Im about to go into SERIOUS TRAINING.. harddd every day

    I know this topic has been discussed before..

    but I was wondering, would u guys recommend bench pressing? or nah


    Im real fast, and the guys from the gym tell me dont lift weights as it may slow me down... but, I wont to have a nice build (like a judah, mosley) oppose to a skinny corrallas, erik morrallas ect



    So should I bench, and lift weights? or just push ups and situps

      YEah, but dont overdo it. Work with lighter weights and try to do the reps quickly. Try to do at least 10-12 reps a set. And after you do a set, do some stretching exercises.

            Oh yeah, dont work out more than twice a week, if you are boxing, concentrate more on power rather then concentration exercises. Squats, deadlifts, benchpress, powercleans etc.... Stuff like concentration curls and cables are unnecessary.

              Bench, especially with lighter weight, wokrs the shoulders very well if you do it all the way down to your chest and lift it quickly.

                    Hell ****ing yes bench press.

                    but do like BB said and don't try and power lift. Do repetitions of lighter weights, take it easy and make sure to stretch your arms.

                    You want to develop long, lean loose muscles. They don't fatigue as fast as bulky short fibre muscles.
