I pulled my pec last year.
Now days I dare'nt go over 242lbs,thats when I need the explosive power.
So I just do sets of 8-10 of 242 on flat bench then go to decline dumb bells,and other shaping exercises
Its still improving my physque though,so I'm happy.
I hold more muscle now than I used to as well, so I now what you are saying |
its a pain in the ass!!! lol i worked up so slow i litera;y did a month at 315 then moved up 10lbs a month didnt feel like i was pushing hard either.
oh and i never bounce i always pause each rep at bottom before i press
