''get connected first before you start to progress your weight'' this is key thanks buddys

this really help I had this problem where I'm doing bench press and only feel it in my shoulders and triceps

I absolutely LOVE you guys! SO happy I came across your channel - and it has helped both myself and clients. You look at things from a different perspective from Training and it is fantastic!

That intrinsic tension que, awesome! never heard of that one before!

Great video. I finally felt the difference immediately after following the instructions arching my back and pressing inward on the bar. I just started working out about 3 weeks ago and was wondering why I was never sore in the chest area after working out. I knew something had to be wrong. Thanks for the vid gentlemen.

I felt the difference right away! Really appreciate this video and you guys.

Awesome thanks. Just what I was looking for.

For some reason i dont feel it in my chest when im actually benching but when i wake up in the morning i feel it in my chest lmao...

Awesome video! You guys rock, I can't wait to bench today. I'll be sure to go lighter and try out these new "primers".

This was was _excellent_, thank you. My arms burn whenever I do a chest press for example, I never use my chest for anything and have crap posture. Amazing how many things are related. I love how you isolated things, this was so great.

Thanks, this was very helpful!

thank you ..thank you thank you thank you thank you so much to all of you three SIRs,,,,,,

3:16 first time i hear of this tip and is amazing. Its incredible the difference doing the barbell.

Thank you-so helpful

That was an is an awesome technique Sal D. said, like u trying to squeeze the barbell together .. I tried it after the video and it activated the chest immediately.. I’ve been following u guys for2 months

Watch a lot if your videos... daily. This is the best one. More like this

Some good tips here. I also place a BOSU on the bench of floor and lay back on it between the shoulder blades as it also adds a little instability. Obvs drop any usual weights down until you get used to it.

I feel it between shoulder and biceps. THIS HELPS SOOOO

Thank you thank you thank you for this video! I've been asking this #quah for forever. Thanks fellas

👍I got right now Thanks!!!

Thank you for this, what a difference It has made.

Great tips, awesome video. What length and width of foam roller are you using in the video? Thank you.

Would this be the same position advice for incline bench press also? Please do an incline bench press video showing proper position

finally just felt my chest thank you

These guys are bloody magic

Really useful, thank you. These videos are really helpful, just got into lifting after years of being purely cardio and getting good form at the moment is my main goal so I can then start building the weight up.

I am so glad I found this video, I have been doing this all wrong since I started working out. Immediately feel the difference

Thanks guy's

This video deserves more likes.

Just discovered these videos. Super awesome. Wish I had all this knowledge 20 years ago. THANK YOU

Thanks

Thank you for sharing your video to us.very inspiring God bless

prepping on the roll is a smart way to target the muscle set and train the mind for good bench work. Ive had several knee, shoulder and back rehabs and the same principles applied.

imma try these next chest

HOLY SHYT...THESE ALL WORK FOR ME,ESPECIALLY THE GRIP AND PUSH TO METHOD....THANK U

It be two years in April I've been consistently working out. And I'm still having problems getting this.

I feel my chest burning watching these tips 😊

intrinsically

I JUST GOT A MIND PUMP!

Yea, I feel NOTHING in my chest EVER

Found this video in 2024. I've been training for years and my chest would never grow, just get stronger (poor technique and posture). These techniques here have helped me finally feel it predominately in my chest vs my shoulders. I'm being humbled by dropping to 135lbs simply to connect correctly. Thanks!🎉

Just like most ppl here, i too was facing issues feeling my chest pump but if i do some bicep curls just enough to sore my biceps after that if i do chest i can literally feel my chest doing the lifts (guess the logic behind is that my hand muscles are dead so chest has to work in order to lift the weights)

I was doing bench press wrong today I didn't know I was doing it wrong thx for correcting me.

thanks, for months i have been bench pressin w and only hurting my shoulders

bro saved me for real

Hey coach, when I'm pulling my hands inward during the press I feel a lot of tension in my lower back.

It’s a good way to activate the chest like it a lot

4:13 that guy is so random just interrupting so he can start with his techinque

I never knew putting your shoulders back and squeezing the bar together activates your chest. I sub great video

Who's here after wasting a chest day?

do you guys know how we call that flat bench that is wide where you sit but goes narrow where you lie your back? what's its use?

probably why i wasnt dooing it right i was always getting pain between the delt and biceps and the pec feels nothing lol

thanks fot the tips, but forget that wall stretch IMO

4:17 his eyes when he gets cut off lmao... it’s easy to just finish what your saying then verbally pass the invisible mic you guys should learn this instead of waiting for a que to jump in over someone when they are talking.. or have someone behind the camera man pointing to who’s next!

Can someone tell me the reason as whenever i do bench press i feel most of stress on lower back that i arched rather than my chest....any simple tip would help🙂I feel all strain on the arched lower back

wouldn't dumbbells be a much better as you can squeeze them in, vs the bar which you can't?

Is the arcade machine part of your work outs?

So that's the mestake but and back is touching the bench but still forward rounded shoulders but now it's corrected 👌👍

I should have seen this video aeons ago!

Nice stuff, but guys plan your part right and stop trying to interrupt each other for the spot light

I do try to create that natural arch and yet I still don't feel anything. I'm going to continue to practice these movements you guys spoke about and see what happens. Thank you!

I’m still struggling , I feel like my stomach is actually out not my chest idk

I just wasted the whole day chest massacre ( A beginner routine 5 days split) All those workouts and I didn't feel my chest. Now that I'm home and watching this video i did my elevated push up and now i feel my chest, Thanks i wish i watched it sooner.

These guys would be perfect for playing the kingpins in a heist movie.

When i am doing bench press or dumbell press like normal inclined or declined i just feel it in my triceps and collar bone dont know why Any solution or suggestions guys 🤔🤔🤔🤔

The 2 guys behind are like , what is he doing ?

4:56 before each set and 3:15 during each rep are great advice. You will feel your chest when bench pressing if you follow this.

I feel it mostly on my back muscles than chest

I feel it all way to much it hurts so much to where I can’t bench so I wouldn’t complain

Why on earth is there just two other guys just walking around with him and watching him

Damn these guys are teaching us about benching but now someone has to teach them about leg day

i’m not going to lie I feel so stupid 😂 I didn’t even know you had to arch your back like that when doing bench presses i’ve just been laying flat on the bench... 😩

Interesting. It seems the bench press is more about squeezing the arms together than pushing the arms forward.

When I benchpress I have the same problem, where I only feel it in my triceps. Im gonna try this tommorow focusing on my shoulder and my chest

I recorded myself benching and it looks right but still no feeling in my chest

It’s wried because when doing normal bench press My shoulders don’t hurt (because I retract them) and I can sometimes get my chest in it if I pause at top and try to squeeze it. But when doing wide grip(first time today) my left shoulder started hurting even though I had my shoulders retract and elbows at a 45 angle. Didn’t feel my chest either but it was my first time doing wide grip. But it’s always my left shoulder that hurt when doing different exercises. So gonna have to go to the doctor

1 rule just do light face pulls holding it at stretched position every day 10 good fine reps no need to go heavy and keep at it and you will detract your scapula any time and shoulders forward in no time

After all these years... i did all chest exercises like a fuking idiot! thanx for the video

I tried everything it just doesn’t work idk why

Feeling in it your chesticles

Whenever there's an imbalance why do you guys go into like bodybuilding mentality except for justin, he's right, it's about bad posture and correcting posture, mobility, flexibility. When there's imbalance think therapy, not more body building. Yes for body building, you can do some type of fly and squeeze. Do flys before bench or static holds in like a bear hug. Or you can think therapy. I'm sure the other two will think of oh, do more rows, work on rear delts. Justin is right on. What I've been doing and you guys can take this...go to a lat pull down or bands from the top and do sort of reverse shrugs. retract your shoulder blades and shrug your shoulders down and do static holds and reps. After you do 50 reps when you walk away, your shoulders will be so tight that you'll walk around with your shoulders automatically retracted and and down. If we are so use to use pushing we needs shit to pulling. Static hold in a stretch from a pull up bar and from a lat pull down is so different and if you don't do both stretches in both directions, you'll get imbalances. We need reverse tension. But most cant do that cause of shoulder mobility thus you need to work on shoulder mobility. NOT more body building. Whenever there's imbalance I always think therapy because duh, doing the body building way got you that imbalance. So why do more body building mentality to correct it. Justin should do more vids. A therapist will always get you into stretching, massages, mobility before any strengthening or hardening.

the trainer at my gym is shithead. I've been complaining about the same issue. thanks for the video

That doesnt work for me i cant even do the movement with no we8ght at all

I think these guys just heard a new word and thought, shit that sounds good, I'm going drop this wherever I can.

still can't feel. how come push ups feels more than bench press

They need a 4th and 5th guy to provide additional unique techniques.

Someone needs to tell them what "intrinsic" means.

Despite the arch, I don't feel anything 😓😓. It's depressing lol.

When I retract my shoulders into my ' backpocket' and start pressing, my range of motion is short as hell and it hurts in my front delts. Been having trouble growing a chest, stuck on the same weight for ages and my chest activation is well, its there.... but somewhere. Help..

Chesticles lol

3:30 the action of pushing hands inwards - can that be done with dumbbells?

the reason you feel other muscles while doing chest means your cheast is weak and to push the weight need others muscles to help. once your chest gets stronger it will take over.

the foam roll just hurts my back

No differents

Chestacles, breastacles, testacles

You guys have tiny calf.

Take your tshirts off guys, so we can see the muscles and learn more, I am smart yeahh😎

It's "lie" not "lay." Chickens lay eggs. People lie down.

3 guys talking chest exercises.... 3 average chests

wow we life in 2017 and people think in Chest Press the chest is working ??? Wow... I mean... wheres your brain when you Train?
