Hey guys,
so tried my bench shirt again since my 200kg pb last time and with your advice(jack the shirt down). I added another 220kg, hopefully I can jack it way more and go for 240 next time!!

still didnt touch though, hoping heavier weight will make it touch naturally enough!

I'm not sure if you're aware, but 220kg is not 500lbs...

Go on the worst fails thread and watch the 280 bench one, then get side spotters. Yeah 484lbs not 500.

Side spotters would be a good move IMO!

Got the balls to get under it, that's a good thing.

My unsolicited and unasked for advice is that this above quote just is not true and shows a misunderstanding of how the gear works. It's not as simple as adding more weight, you WILL need to change your groove as it comes down and develop the support strength to do so.

This isn't just bo***cks i'm making up either, I have seen this happen. You've got the balls but you need the plan or you're going to be spinning your wheels into either an accident/injury or lack of progress.

Get some coaching and you could be good.

If you call that an inch then Shane is 12 feet tall.

Possibly. I was thinking the exaggeration of the numbers, rather than in the purely mathematical sense.

Where Tommy is saying it was an inch, it was more like 5 inches. In the same way Shane being 4 foot tall in real life, could be exaggerated to 12 feet tall.
