Quote Tough old man: "....nOW LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT PARTIALS 1.5 X YOUR MAX. It helps you get use to handling heavy weight. Sometimes the mind when you get under a weight which is going to be a new one time max rep just scares the shit out of you. When you do partials for a bit with 1.5 times your max, it relieves you from that mental block of I can't handle this much weight. Partial are very good.
I can currently incline bench 390lbs for one rep. Can't do 400 lbs. I'm doing partials right now on the incline with 615 lbs for 5 reps. I raise it 5 lbs a week with no problem. I will guarantee you by July 14th i will have a new 1 time rep on the incline of 400 lbs. IMO mental is 90% of this game if not more. If it wasn't then why do little old lady's pick up thr front of the car when it falls on someone. Beat the mental game to your new personal best.

yeah i know, but I was stupid and looked at nothing but the line that said 1.5X max
which in my case would be like lifting over 300lbs. My bad, all blame goes on me. |

Partials can be very beneifial to you towards getting use to heavier weights. But you have to set the pins on a smith machine. It can be 2", 4" ect. Hey Little brother if you hurt yourself I feel bad. Adding 45 lbs to you max doing a partial should have been a piece of cake. again sorry for your injury Tough |

I,m not kissing anything that doesn't have tits.
![]() Here is why you don't unrack an ultra heavy bench, as opposed to a sqaut. When unracking an ultra heavy squat, to get used to it, you get under the weight, push up, and walk out. All of the work is done in a very good position, straight up, and all you do is walk back. The small musculature that is stabilizing and bringing the weight back are the hammies, ass and quads. With an ultra heavy bench, you unrack the weight and nearly simultaneously pull the weight over your body, using very small musculature to bring it in place. In this exercise, the small stabilizing structure that brings the weight to where it needs to be is the rotator cuff. This is why most take a liftoff with a 1rm bench press. So, in the squat, the small musculature doing the work is roughly the size of your lower body, in the bench, it is slightly larger than the size of a dollar bill. |
