Member 1143, 16 posts SQ 205, BP 105, DL 205 515.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq	I tried board pressing for the first time this morning.I was doing it on a 4 board at 100kg which id never do without a board.I still don't really see the point of board pressing.If you can't use a board in competiton why use it training?

Is partial to the odd bender. Member 6, 10239 posts SQ 280, BP 192.5, DL 317.5 790.0 kgs @ 102kgs Eq	Build tricep strength.

some nice relaxing jazz. Member 77, 12599 posts SQ 265, BP 165, DL 280 710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	It's a great tool to build lockout strength. Most unequipped lifters don't need the top end work, but a one or two board is still good assistance work. Maybe higher boards with a closer grip for more specific tri work.

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330 752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq	Tony is a big advocate of partial lifts to build strength.

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250 635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq	Is 85 an accurate 1RM? or is that old? If it is, then I wouldn't mess about with 4 board at the moment. That's pretty specialist tricep work. If you're going to use boards, stick with 1 and 2 boards for now but also do plenty of work to the chest.
