Ive been doing them wrong … thanks chrissy
dam thats 135 and she probly weighs like 85 pounds…
ALSO for building muscles, you need powerlifting, strenght and growth, go hand in hand…
If you not increase your strength, you cannot grow more…
i think she was really discussing on building the chest muscles, not on powerlifting
i agree , dis is bang on … shes absolutely right…
This is one of the best tutorials! I have a friend in canada who is a personal trainer who taught me the same exact way. It does take getting use to once you have used bad habits for a long time. This is awesome! Keep it up Chrissy!
Crissy, benchpress is a powerlift exercise, which means you should use your entire body.
To increase total power.
Not just to build chest muscles.
how much can you bench?
strong arm
Can you show me how you squat
i want to train with you, you are so helpful
While I appreciate your comment, I have had a doctor that specializes in human movement evaluate my wrist alignment and in order not to compromise my alignment, I have to have my hands like that. I was benching ALOT of weight with my thumbs wrapped around the bar and caused a lot of stress to my wrist joint.
You should never have your hands like that, especially if it’s a lot of weight.
This is great explanation, I have never heared this details before.
Yea! Glad it helped!
