Maybe i missed this part. Still not able to feel my lats yet so bending the bar doesn't really work now. Might cause my lats is still weak, not built. Might sounds illogical but those cue feel, doesn't comes in 1 day, it just come slowly.

Yup..it took me months..and one thing not sure about others my grip width is not that wide just a little bit wider than my shoulder...you can build up your triceps better or you can better "bend the bar" this way..

I notice this video coming out from Jordan Yeoh this morning, I don't feel quite right with the bar path being straight 90 degree, it is unnatural.

vs Alan Thrall's one which is slightly towards lower chest.


Despite everyone's are born different and all of us have different length of hand, I'm leaning towards Alan Thrall. Before I'm aware of bar path of bench, I shot my bench video once, naturally, it is not 90 degree straight.

Idk if the way powerlifter and body builder's bench have different bar path, any comment?

I have pain in my lower back when i arch during bench press - not the stupid extreme arch - just slightly more than necessary to reduce the ROM, what are the possible causes? Anything to take note of?

I have rounded back my whole life, not sure if that contributes to it?

Is tat pain consistently present during arching only or? First will be yr arching position, generally a fist size arch is good enough to ensure u dont go overboard with it, secondly its time to put more focus on working the posterior chain.

It is present during arching, specifically when I arch more than I have been used to/ I think is necessary, though I wouldnt say it's overboard. Any other time I dont feel it, sore maybe, but not this pain, where I have to really stop, luckily before I unrack.

Cant recall when it started or what happened prior to it.

There's something called the Bulgarian Method covered by Omarisuf, it's mostly squatting everyday. I don't think this is the same as the original Bulgarian system though.

I'd recommend Smolov for squat

The key is Volume guys..if you want progress for all your lifts.

Take 1 step back to move 2 step forward.

You muscle and CNS needs recovery to progress and prevent injuries.

Squat everyday are for those atletes already peaking in their lift and just want to perfecting their movements, they are not lifting near max.

You can if you alternate beetween heavy days and light days.

That's why I feel Smolov works instead of squat everyday - at most 4 times a week if you really want to go all out on Squat..

Just like ah_suknat - best way for recovery incorporate heavy, light or medium per week.

I highly recommend one chiropractor/physiotherapist in Penang: Philip Yap

My friends got a back injury got it fixed from this guy.

If you want to grow. Drop the weight and do more reps.
