This is a specialized guide on breaking a bench press plateau. If your bench press hasn't progressed for a long time or isn't what it should be, then this is for you.
Here we'll look at how to break through a bench press plateau, which many powerlifters unfortunately encounter. The author of this guide is Dave Tate.
He is an experienced and respected specialist in the field of powerlifting and strength training. The founder and president of the Elite FTS organization, which trains coaches and athletes, and also manufactures equipment for strength training. And believe me, he knows what he's talking about.
This information is relevant for those who bench with and without a shirt.
One thing, this guide will contain some pretty obscene words. This should not offend you, the way the information is presented is informal and brutally harsh.
The author's goal is to motivate you and do some serious work on your mistakes.
You will be surprised by the amount of nuances and details of the bench press that are described in the guide. Tested on my own experience.
