Kluv#0 Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) Hey you are doing great. Doing dumbbell press is the last thing you want to do if your left pec hurts. If you must do flat bench, bring your grip in a couple of inches and rely more on Triceps- I tore my left pec 25 years ago and I still can press substantial amounts just by having strong ass triceps Edited October 31, 2016 by Kluv#0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 You are big dude. Are those standard plates and bar? if you can't go lower than that, I would get it checked out because something is wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 I'm actually shocked a standard bar can hold that much without bending. What weight are those plates on the bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 There is 5 25s 2 50s and 2 10s on each side. But how I have them on there is in order how I take them off the leg press . I put a 25 on each side first then the 2 50s and the 4 25s then the 10s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 It's a standard Olympic bar I had over 600 on it before it can probaly hold more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 (edited) Ya. That's what I figured. It's a strong bar. I know some cheapo oly bars that are only rated for that Edited November 1, 2016 by Chez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 Yeah I definitely prefer the Olympic barbells though . Can get slightly wider grip . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yan_Wei Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Have you ever did WR holds with the weight hanging in the air (you holding it at shoulder level)? Like imagine just holding a dumbbell but with arm(s) extended until straight for time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Roberson Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 you mean like roll it up and then in roll it back down on a hand held wrist roller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess you could do that (I do that about 3 times per week), buy what I was referring to was something like this: I usually do both DO (like the guy in the picture) & DU (with 1 or 2 hands/arms) but on certain days for extra forearm, arm & shoulder training. I have my arms up high at shoulder, not as low as that guy since I want to get the full burn. Edited December 3, 2016 by Yan_Wei Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
