A weight trainer I know through my fiance puts it this way: Don't try to cut stuff out -- add more stuff in. If you want the fried chicken, tell yourself that you will eat some delicious greens/nuts/whatever first. That way, even if you still do want the chicken you will not eat as much of it (and who knows, maybe you will lose the craving). | ||

I think it's that powerlifting/competition bench uses alot of shortcuts (you're moving the bar as little as possible) so they'll do things like extreme back arch and really wide grip, which isn't optimal for actually gaining mass. Although I'd like to hear someone who actually knows about this to chime in :D | ||

My right arm seems to get more sore after the workout than my left arm (like its doing more work for some reason) It also still hurts a bit when i put the bar on my back for squatting. I'll take any advice to make it be less annoying x.x Stuff that may help + Show Spoiler + 1. Posterior capsule stretch, sleeper stretch, external rotation stretch 2. Lats stretch, pec stretch, pec minor massage. Can use basketball or other ball and lie on top of it for pec rolling. For pec major you can use corner stretch -- arms abducted to 90, with hands pointing up. Face the concave corner of a wall, and let the elbows touch the side of the wall. Then lunge forward and let it stretch out the anterior muscles of the shoulder. 3. Deep tissue massage all around the scapula; anterior, lateral and posterior shoulder; coracobrachialis, biceps brachii, and brachialis. 4. Nerve glides (google first link) 5. Band dislocates and wall slides 6. Foam roll thoracic spine (put 45s on your chest for deeper stretch). Also, roll side to side as you are rolling and try to arch your back http://www.marksdailyapple.com/how-to-improve-thoracic-spine-mobility/ | ||

Today's bench: 86kgx4 LOL. The bar was bouncing around with my absolutely terrible form as well. Following this I loudly proclaimed an English obscenity in a crowded weight room, generating the laugh of a couple of my Japanese buddies who apparently understand that "SHITFUCK" is not polite English. Following this, I was frustrated and didn't want to do barbell rows, so I threw in some weighted chinups instead. I was repping 92kgx5x3 before changing to Madcow's. I either had a bad day, have screwed up my diet (too few calories), or all of the above. Stupid stupid Rosa. | ||

Stupid stupid Rosa. it's normal that your bench suffers during a diet. while I don't know the details of your diet and if you have been too extreme on calories (ie, muscle loss), you should know that losing some off your bench does not equal strength loss. 1) You lose some size off your chest. means the bar has to go further down and means its a shitload harder. 2) Although this might only affect max lifts, you lose bodyweight which is a counterweight when you push. A guy I know who benches in competitions talks about this and why he can't/won't cut most of the time. back in october/november, while on a whole milk binge, I managed 75kg 5x5 in bench. Since then, I dropped some fat and still am. I managed 72.5kg 5x3 last week and am going for 75kg 5x3 today, but I actually feel i'm much stronger now than I was when I benched that back in november. imo, unless your other lifts are suffering as well, don't worry about having lost strength | ||
