Cool bench press secrets

http://thefitshow.com/week3/milos_chest_med.htm Im guilty of no mind muscle connection, all ego. Even though I do strict reps, expanding the ribcage seems like a good idea. I'll probably have to lower my BP weight now.

I've tried using super-strict form, and in spite of the feeling of a higher-quality contraction, I just don't grow. Powerlifting style bench has really made my chest a lot thicker in the last several months.

Thanks for posting that link tho, was good to watch.

Thanks for linking that Polka King, good info for everyone. I know I go on automatic sometimes when I hit the gym this reminded me to keep my mind muscle connection and concentrate on my form.
