Very short range of motion due to those risers?
No, just a way to prevent you from messing up your shoulders. No need to go lower than that.
I think David Jack is a great face/trainer for Men’s Health. MH makes it kind of hard to find a lot of these videos in my opinion on their website. I Appreciate the videos.
Great exercise. Thank you! I have done them in a squat rack as well with the self spotting bar at a height to hold the bar on, and press up from there. Basically the exact same movement… I would feel like the plastic risers would bend or get crushed.
is the floor press exactly same as the bench press in targeting mainly the pecs ? Or is it the triceps or lats ?
What are those barbell Supporters called ? and where do you get them ?
I got a Olympic barbell I do floor presses in bedroom
Congrats
Senyrar aerobic step
Simple and straightforward video and he didn’t take ten fucking minutes to explain it like others.
Olympic bar bell is too big for me, i use a smaller bar
Sir from where can we buy such risers ?
No one calls it National Bench Monday. It’s International Chest Day, nerd
I use my bed to rest my barbell lol weird ik
Where do you get them???
Where can i get those risers?
Can I get a link to buy the floor press risers online
does it really help?..i mean what abt the proper stretch we get on bench in gym.
@Paras Chauhan ha Bhai sab safe hai.
Somebody’s been skipping leg day…
7 thaks for the info
I heard somewhere else that the barbell should be pushed up more towards the chest area, not purpendicularly up. Is there truth to this?
Nice video š thank you
Just use some spare bumper plates instead
Where can I buy those ” risers” and how much are they,? I live in an apartment. These would be great. What are they made out of? How much will they hold? Anybody??
That’s what I said. Did you ever find out??
I do this exercise. There is a problem with how he is doing them in this video. Notice that he slides on the floor to get in and out of place. The problem is as you are pushing up the heavy barbell you will have to fight to keep from sliding a bit on the floor. Much like you feel your back sliding a little bit on the bench when doing a bench press. That fight to keep from sliding distracts you and actually takes away strength from pressing upwards. The was yo do this exercise is in a squat rack or power rack lying on a mat. You set the side racks at the lowest height and press from there.
I need these too lol
Where is the muscle contraction?
I found some at a goodwill. Their used for stepping like if somone wanted to do step ups to loose weight.
@Crusader thanks for the tip š
Agreed. He is probably only demonstrating it in a risk-free modified position. You would arguably gain more muscle activation with better ROM.
