Confused
The other day my friend and I were benching. We were suppose to bench but we didnt really feel like working out so we just kind of try to find our max for bench. My friend did about 6 reps at 165 and I did about 9 or 10 reps at 165. But as soon as i got the bar off the rack my arms always shake. Whenever my friend does his bench his arms dont shake like mines do but he couldnt do as many reps as i could? Why does my arm shake but i am able to do more reps.

Maybe he's keeping his body tighter. Do you use machines a lot more than him? He might have more developed stabilizer muscles while you have more developed prime movers.

The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

CP, I sometimes get the same thing... For example, on my 8x3 week of bench in particular, after 3 or 4 sets, sometimes my arms start shaking(a little anyway)... And I use pretty much only free weights, and have been for quite some time.

What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

Bench with DBs for a while, that'll really develop the stabilizers utilised in pressing.
