Want a bigger bench press??

The late, great Louie Simmons 🙏 said to do 100 band pull-a-parts, and 100 band tricep press-downs EVERY DAY.

The bench press is not just a “chest exercise.”

In fact the triceps do more work, through a longer range of motion during a bench press than your actual chest does.

And your back is the base that creates the platform to drive off of while pushing the bar away from you.

Strong triceps, and a strong back are both incredibly important to maximize your bench press.

If you’ve been struggling to break through a plateau with your bench press, try adding some high volume tricep and back work to your program.

If Louie said it, then it has to be true!
