Noob here, is this okay to do?
that or roll of shame, you haven't truely benched without a near death experience
>>76721744Yeah what's someone gonna do?
>>76721744that asian man be fucking white girl pussy on that bench fr
>>76721748Isn't it dangerous? can you get injured?
>>76721756You can be injured just lifting in general.
>>76721744You shouldn’t ego lift with no spot on the bench with the mindset of “it’s ok I’ll just dump the weights” but if for some reason you find yourself with a bar on you that you can’t get up then yeah go ahead and dump them.
>Is this okay, or should I just die? >Should I solve my own problem like man, or wait to get rescued like a little girl?
>>76721756nah man flinging weights all over the place because you ego lifted too much for the camera is perfectly safe for anyone walking by
>>76721786god that webm of that dude (girl?) taking out a guy because she unracks a bar unevenly and it just whacks him
>>76721786I wouldn't know I don't workout at poor people gyms.
This is why if I'm lifting close to my limit I make sure I'm lifting with safeties. If both of those benches are taken I'll just do more volume with lighter weight or wait for a bench with safeties to open up.
>>76721744Just stand up. Easy.>fail bench>use falling moment to drive bar towards your stomach>use forward bar moment to leverage your body from the bench to upright position>continue using forward momentum to stand up in a standing hip thrust movement>once standing either drop the bar or set it downEasy.
>>76721831aka the roll of shame
>>76721755Haha.... If only bro
>>76721744>70kg
>>76721744Do dips instead
>>76721838Roll of shame is OP's video.
>>76721755based
>>76721855no he is dumping the weight
>>76721744Non standalone benches are lower and often the pl8s get caught and dont slide off. Especially if its caught on your neck.Always remember to throw it down towards your waist if failing to roll off, as it might slip or your shoulder/pec might tear and trying to push it up will do nothing.
>>76721771Theres huge benefit to going beyond failure in training, now id rather finish the rep sure and it being a grinder is kind of the goal if you want to maximize gains, whereas failing you only get isometric.
>>76721755Micro penis delusion
>>76721744No. Just ask for a spot, or better yet, only lift weight you can handle by yourself. Even when I fail on bench, I always rerack it on the lower hooks because I don't take gigantic jumps in weight.
>>76721938fortune favors the bald
>>76721744>still benching without safeties in 2025
Yes, but you have to check that there aren't any whiteknight faggots. As the video demonstrate, they will rush to try to unintentionally murder you.
>>76721855>he doesn't know what the roll of shame isYou have never benched saar
>>76721755That Big Asian Dick hits fr
>>76721744Nope. Lift it or die. Please don't disturb the other gym members.
>>76721744Yea this is fine but you might need to apologize to the owners
>>76721747Do none of you retards bench with safeties? What's the point in doing all that bullshit when you can bench heavier, safer, and with more confidence by using the equipment your gym already has
>>76721796This happened at my gym too - some somalian looking guy was quarter squatting 3pl8s and he proceeded to unload the bar all from one side all at once, it was almost like looney tunes seeing the light side without plates shoot up and launch the barbell a few feet.
>>76722179safeties don't always come down to the right spot, it's not the same as using them for squats. also you can still get stuck under them lol
>>76721744>>76721786 >>76721938>>76722082>>76722086I do this shit all the time. idgaf. Being loud and throwing weights around. Smacking plates together. Throwing cable accessories around is a form of dominance. It might make other people uncomfortable, but the gym is not a safe space. You are supposed to feel uncomfortable. DOn't like it. Planet Fitness is on your right and across the hall.-Joey Gainz
>>76721744Yeah. I don't know why anyone would have safety clips on a barbell ngl. Just load that shit up and bail if you have to. >>76722303Based
>>76721744I switched to dumbbell press so I don't have to worry about this.
>>76722289Are you slow? You can adjust them to the right height in a power rack which allows you to hit full ROM while catching the bar in case it falls. It's also physically impossible for you to get "stuck" under them. At this point I can only assume you have no idea what safeties are or you are a complete moron. Perhaps your fate is to die under the barbell like the other idiots you see in the /gif/ rekt threads.
>>76721744Kek why are azns such dyels?
>>76722179not worth the risk of hitting the safety bar with the barbell while doing my set
>>76721786I know most people are retards with no spatial awareness, but you shouldn't be anywhere within the trajectory of weights if they were to fall off >>76721855>>76721831This is not safe with heavy weight. If you fuck up you can drop the weight on your balls, which is definitely not something I'm willing to risk, or you can ack your back trying to hold and set the bar downJust lift with a spotter or use safeties
>>76722553Can you elaborate on this? What do you mean by hitting the bar? You do know that you can simply drop the safeties to slightly below your full ROM and it'll still save your ass if you fail...right? What kind of argument are you even trying to make.
>>76721756You can tear a pec doing this on heavy weights, but it beats being dead.But you can also just... use safeties. If your gym has the ones that aren't deathtraps where the bar can get pinned under the safety that is, anyway.
not everyone goes to equinox and has safeties for their benches you pompous bourgeois
>>76721744Dont bench mate. There are far more effective exercises to train your chest
What is with that picture on the wall? I have never seen someone do a dumbbell upright row. It's one of the stupidest exercises imaginable
>>76722613Don't fuck up then kinda like doing a diddly.
You should be able to roll out any weight you cant bench since that's way easier to squat/dead
>>76722880>Don't fuck up then kindaSometimes you just fuck up, though. Are your really going to gamble your health like that for no benefit?
>>76721744No. It's rude to roll them off on the floor like that. Throw them out of the window or through the ceiling or something so people don't trip on them on the floor.
>>76722718>not everyone goes to equinox and has safeties for their benches you pompous bourgeoistake some fuckin sawhorses>too tallyou got sawhorses and don't got no saw?
>safetyslmao couldn't be me, i just push for the 8th rep anyways despite knowing full well its not going to happen today and then injure myself for a few weeks with the whiplashlike a man
>>76721938>Even when I fail on bench, I always rerack it on the lower hooks because I don't take gigantic jumps in weight.That's the most dangerous option. If you can't reach the hook the bar is still right above your head. With a weight you can barely keep up. Good chance you'll drop it onto your face or neck. Never move the bar above your face if your arms aren't locked out.
>>76723139I failed the 5th rep of 2pl8 yesterday right below lower hooks and you are right, i think those were made for manlets who can't rack upper hooks
>>76722519the safety heigh cannot be adjusted continously. You might be in a position where one setting is too low, but the next higher one already too high.
>>76721855>roll of shame>no rolling in sight
>>76723180Technically, he does roll
>>76722849dipspush upsdumbbell chest pressBench press is for retards.
>>76721744That’s why you bench to failure just on the Smith Maschine.Alone, in an empty gym.Just to avoid beeing shamed.
>>76723146Use risers under the bench.
>>76721744Just use dumbbells my dude no need to do that plus you will improve your form with them
>>76723146>You might be in a position where one setting is too low, but the next higher one already too high.Literally cannot happens. Your neck is always much lower than your chest even if you don't arch it. Even if the safeties are somehow too low to be used by lowering your chest, you can roll the bar slightly up to your neckPicrel, notice the difference in height between neck and chest
>>76723273My 1rm barbell is 225 and I don't try over 35 dumbbells because of how awkward they are to get in position. It's not the same thing.
>>76722708You won't tear shit unless you are a roidtranny>>76721748You can simply raise your legs up and swing on your feet instead of being a nuisance flinging plates all over
>>76721744Look at this guy, dumping his weights everywhere for all to see, very very disrespectful.>iykyk
>>76722708Im having trouble visualizing what youre talking about. Pic.?
I bench with a 5' bar so I can't set up my safeties without the risk of smashing my elbows into them. I just don't put the clips on but I've only dumped the plates like that maybe 3 times. It's still risky and inconvenient, so I do the roll of shame instead. If you practice it well and it's basically one fluid motion it doesn't feel sketchy at all.
>>76723371They should make safety plates that are like 4 feet in diamter.
>>76721744I recognize this guy so this is probably an instructional video rather than him actually failing. He's a lot stronger than that. Also yes, if you can't get it up and the alternative is dying, do this.
>>76723464>He's a lot stronger than that>azn twink>noodle handsdoubt.png
>>76721879Higher quality pic because I was mirin and wanted a better version.Arnie looks unreal in that pic.
>>76721755I was watching love is blind with my gf and the one asian guy is extremely insecure about being asian while simultaneously being the most boring non-entity I've ever seen
>>76721744Isn't it cheating to lift like this or is it still a full rep?
>>76721771Anybody who uses the term egolift is a weak faggot dyel.
>>76723352>weight too heavy for you to manage>suddenly jerk it from one side as you dump a bunch offIf you're a retard and you're doing this on weights you can easily manage, then yeah, you wont tear a pec>>76723370If you mean the safeties thing, some frames have the safety bars made in a way where it's possible for something to slip between the frame and the bar.This isn't the exact one I'm talking about, but it's a pretty egregius example. You can see how the bar can go behind the safeties if you happen to fail at re-racking the bar, and then it can realistically get pinned there by the safeties themselves as you try to not die.
>>76723853Probably because he did roids
>>76723370>>76724501Another example
>>76724764Everyone did roids, they pushed it further and further each year until it was impossible to deny their existence and now they're out in the open.
>>76721744Only as a last resort, good way to fuck up a shoulder
>>76722179I still bench with full confidence without safeties knowing I can just do the roll
>>76722641What you don't understand is if the safeties are under your ROM than that means they're lower than your chest, the bar should touch your fucking chest. If they're lower than your chest then how the fuck are they going to catch the bar? If you're a fatty you can suck in your gut or let the weight push down your squishy fat, but for normal muscled individuals we don't have that give.
>>76724834roll only works for muscle failure, when you can't push but body is still functionalany injury like pec tear and your fucked
>>76724863See >>76723309
>>76721744I always wonder just how fucking cringe and embarrassing it is for youtube guys like him who talks to himself at the gym while filming
>>76722909Yes.
>>76723311>I don't try over 35 dumbbells50s are still pretty easy to maneuver, its once you get to 70+ that its a bit of an awkward bitch.
>>76725305Bench press is bad and dagerous. There are better alternatives for chest.
>>76722081he got that big old man asian japanese dick that fuck white girl pussy
>>76721744>failing on 1.5 pl8but yeah it's fine
>>76722179My local (chain)gym's shitty benches aren't even welded equally and you think there's safeties? (It's Technogym equipment, go figure) >Captcha>N0GTS>N0Gkek
>>76722179Most people seethe about the risk of a safety taking 2cm away from their depth.
