    WRONG TECHNIQUE. …
    WRONG TECHNIQUE. Your position on the machine was all wrong, you were seated too low and even more worryingly your hands were wrongly positioned with your wrists too low and your knuckles facing upwards instead of forwards. Terrible demo.

    thanks this really helped me.

    But, I really …
    But, I really recomend that if you are just starting, then first do it with the Chest press. After you feel very comfortable with it, pass on to the Bench press Machine which will help you get an idea of the movement. Then, go to the bench press.

    Sincerely, Jean P

    Hey technosailer… …
    Hey technosailer……The advatange of the chest press machin is that it help you stabilize and develop the chest symmetrically since with the Bench press you might lower one side of the bar first or you might have the bar twisted or even maybe you might not be able to lift the weaker side if you have any….Now, the advantage of the bench press is that you have to put more force to it since your the one that has to stabilize the bar and you have to control the weight.

    at the gym i go to there is not sufficient equipment to do a bench press but there is a chest press machine. is the chest press machine the same as doing a bench press and do you get the same results?

    it/s way easier on the machine than it is with barbell or free weights, the angle is different, thus its easier

    i think he’s locking the elbows at the half of the movement, not at the end of the movement

    injuries apparently. because in most of these vids, they show you theses ways for ur own safety, and so you can get the best outta the workout, without straining urself too much and stuff. thats what i think at least.

    LOL he looks like he’s locking his elbows… am I the only one who sees that?

  21. FATBOYNOTSLIM103 Says:

    yer thanks, im hoping im lifting around the same because im trying to do my 100kg, i dont do it very often and im almost there ive been out of training for a while due to a strain, but when i get back ill be sure to take that into acount thanks for the help:)

  22. jambogenie Says:

    I cant i can do …
    I cant i can do alot more on the chests press than if i was to bench press i think its because your on a fixed movement from the machine you dont have to steady the bar as you bring it up,

    for instance i can chest press 70ish but on the bench press i find it hard to go past 50.
    but thats just me it could be diffrent for others,
    hope that helped

    Kind of off the path here..Are doing negatives important ? I see people skip negatives ,they tell me they feel stronger because they can do more reps by skipping the negs..

    is this the same as benching, i know they work the same muscles, but say you do 100kg on a chess press would you be able to do it on the bench?
