It's been awhile since I've been able to lift regurally due to football and I was wondering if there were any exercises that would especially help with my bench.

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

just focus on chest and triceps. Incline, flat, flys, and tricep workouts should do you good

You can't expect an increase in over-night!
It takes time to increase just 5 lb.!

Lift and stop posting!

Uh...NO... what do flyes have to do with increasing your bench? Or inclines? Those are bodybuilding movements..

Do you want football specific strength for your bench?

here's a clue.

WORK YOUR BACK - IF YOUR BACK IS WEAK SO WILL YOUR BENCH

WORK YOUR TRAPS - DITTO ABOVE

CLOSE GRIP BENCH PRESSES (USE A 10INCH SPACE IN THE GRIP) BETTER SIMULATES THE ACTIONS YOU WOULD DO IN FOOTBALL THAN THE NORMAL WIDER GRIP BENCH... PLUS IT HAS THE ADDED BENEFIT OF ANNIHILATING THE TRIS...

THE KEY IS TO CYCLE HEAVY AND LIGHTER WORKOUTS.....IF AT ALL POSSIBLE TRY TO USE "LIFTING BANDS" - ASK YOUR COACH IF YOUR GYM HAS ANY.

OR IF YOU'VE GOT THE LOOT JUST GOOGLE SEARCH "WESTSIDE BARBELL CLUB" AND DROP THE 50 BUCKS ON THEIR BENCH PRESSING VIDEO. IT'S WORTH THE MONEY AND THEN SOME.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

If you used to play football, your coach should have bench press routine that should help you increase your bench press. I think pyramids help the best, that's usually what they do in high school routines.

Gee! If you want to increase your bench press, why not train... the bench press. Of course, some assistance exercises might help, (use of bands, changing grip, ROM, etc.) but you should focus on the bench if you want to increase it.

Thanks for the responses guys. One other thing I would like to know - How often should I bench? With my current routine I do legs Monday, arms Tuesday,shoulders Wednesday, back Thursday, and chest Friday, so my routine says only to bench on Friday. Would it hurt any if I benched on Tuesday or Wednesday too?

Try a bar that's raised in the middle, so you can go down further on your bench,
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

use dumbells

the use of dumbells allows for a greater range of movement.

also dumbells build up the synergist (the assisting muscles) muscles more then a barbell can.

as for how many times you bench depends on how long you have been benching, you said it's been awhile, so benching twice could help. Try it on Tuesday And Friday. Other then that your workout split looks good.

If you still wanna use a bench, then maybe do this.

Tues: Barbell Bench
Fri: Dumbell Bench

I love dumbells. If I could, I'd have sex with them. I'm still working on the symantics for that one...

However, I did lose barbell bench strength when I started doing dumbell bench.

I don't know which one will translate better for football. Probably barbell for pure strength.

this is what works for me...
monday: heavy bench, tuesday: biceps, wednesday: shoulders(heavy front raises if serious about bench), thursday: heavy triceps
(weighted dips and/or close grip b/p), friday: back(heavy), saturday and sunday: rest up for heavy bench on monday again.
this is a bench work out for strength not size...eat and rest much

The best exercise I found for increasing your bench press is DIPS. This is a killer exercise! much like the pull-up which works your back and bis. Dips work your chest, and your tricepts. Try throwing in 3 sets of dips to failure in your workout routine everytime you do chest. I usually do about 20 reps per set but yours may be more or less depending on your ability.

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
