Does your fed not require a pause? Strong as always.

Not sure what was better the lift or the jump at the end, that was some height.

I Don't think any fed actually has it in the rules that there has to be a pause, the rule is that the bar has to be motionless, before receiving the press command

Er, surely "pause" and "motionless" are the same thing?? Confused

no

a pause is waiting before giving the press command which with some refs could be 2 seconds after the bar has stopped moving

motionless is giving the press command as soon as the bar has stopped moving

I stay as tight as I can and wait for the "press" command. As soon as that command comes I don't hang about. You could be waiting for seconds or it could be a split second. It usually is the bar needs to stop motionless. I listen for the press, then rack. I find pause benches excellent for building your bench up. You get much tighter from the bottom. I'm no expert when it comes to Bench Press, but leg drive and getting tight in your middle upper back is the key points that have brought my bench up a little.

Thank you very much, I enjoy a quick bunny hop now and again mate, ha ha.

Very strong! As an unequipped guy myself I'm also impressed that you can get 60 kgs out of a shirt.

Looked like a nice set up at that comp too.
