Dan Rémi explains why beginners plateau on bench press: weak grip. Squeeze the bar like you're crushing a ball throughout each rep to engage more muscle fibers and add reps. A small detail that breaks through the stall.
Your bench sucks. You plateaued in your bench for some weeks now, even though you actually very new to training and you should actually be able to progress on a weekly basis. You're seeing your friends surpassing you and you feel like maybe that's just my max genetic potential. One of the solutions that could potentially help you break through this plateau is to get a bit a lot more nuanced with your technique. When it comes to resistance training, there's a lot more that goes on than what meets the eye. This is a tip I got from when I was training in a powerlifting gym. And it's basically about when you having your grip is to really squeeze the ball while you're doing the reps. Try it and you may be surprised to see those extra reps that you actually then can do. And that's the cure to.
