Need A Stronger Bench Press? Start Training Your Rear Delts June 13, 2017

The bench press is one of the few exercises which is loved by almost everyone who goes to the gym. There are guys in the gym who literally train chest like three days a week in hope of increasing their bench press. But still, the weight that they bench still remains the same. The reason being that their chest is capable of lifting weights while their other body parts do not match up to that strength

The rear deltoid acts as a stabilizer muscle which is used during benching. The wobbly action that you might have experienced when benching heavy is because your rear delts aren’t able to handle the excessive weight, i.e. even if your chest is able to push such heavy weight, you are suffering because of your weak rear deltoids

Also, heavy sets should be performed with a lower rep range as this will make you stronger and help in lifting heavy overall (as long as the weight is still close to your capacity). So before you perform a heavy lift, ask someone experienced in the art or read up about it

Conventional Deadlift

The first kind of deadlift you should be dealing with is the conventional deadlift; the orthodox style. Conventional deadlift is the one you should mainly be focusing on. This can also hurt your body tremendously if performed incorrectly
