🚨 BENCH TIPS: CREATING FULL BODY TENSION👇

🔥 How much d’ya bench? 
✅ Well, if you want to bench heavy weight, you better create the foundation to be able to do so.

For the upper body, you’ll need to try and “bend the bar” or try to “tear it apart”. Don’t worry you won’t won’t be able to do so, but just the fact that you’re trying to, will allow your scapulas to be pulled back and down together, while creating an upper back arch fully pushing your chest out. This will also create upper back & trap tension, while also engaing your lats.

🚨 Same thing goes for your lower body: you want to open up your hips & squeeze your glutes to really get all the benefits from the set up.
