Bench Press archaic or still just as important in the gym !

The  bench press in my opinion has a place in every gymnasium as it can be used in  a variety of ways to produce effective results for both guys and girls. Here are some different options to help everyone

  1. B/B Bench press if you are training for size 4×6 reps with close to maximum weight ,up to a minutes rest between sets. Always remember stretch and  warm up before weight training!
  2. Training for tone 4 x 15reps at 60%-80% of max try to challenge yourself on the 4th set to ensure a proper training effect.
  3. Training for weight loss complete incline , decline and flat bench press 3×15 reps with only a 20 second rest between sets. Don’t rest to long before completing 4 sets of these exercises.
  4. Calorie burning complete 4 sets of max reps with a 30sec rest between sets. FEEL THE BURN and the heart rate will rise!

Be prepared to try a little bit of innovation and the Bench Press can be an essential and rewarding part of your workout.
