Weight Bench Equipment

The weight bench is one piece of equipment nearly every uses. Other exercises include bench flyes, various curling exercises, shoulder presses, triceps extensions, leg extensions, leg curls, and various exercises using various attachments. We'll look at general safety tips first, then look at some of the exercises people do with the bench. Don't hold your breath, unless you are trying to move the weight to a safety point and there is no other way to get it there. Also, look for decent padding and a wide enough bench part for your body.

The next time a weight seems too heavy, make it heavier! Seriously, according to Eric Cressey, C.S.C.S., a strength coach in Ridgefield, Conn., adding a few pounds more to your bench and simply holding the weight at the top position can trick your body into lifting heavier on your next set. HERE'S WHAT YOU DO Load the bar with 25% more than the most weight you can lift for one perfect rep. (Have a spotter nearby just in case.) Rerack the bar, then rest for one minute. Called post-activation potentiation (PAP) by exercise scientists, "the heavy hold temporarily increases the sensitivity of your muscles to calcium," says Cressey.
