    Nice, surprised by the strength of the chest with a sticking point that high in the movement. I feel like if I get stuck its usually much lower.

    Curious about the safety straps, wouldn’t you want the high side to be near your head/chest so the bar rolls away from you? As it stands it looks like it would roll into your body.

      I’m a very tricep-dominant bencher (my close grip is nearly the same as my regular flat bench), but I usually get stuck mid-range.

      Curious about the safety straps, wouldn’t you want the high side to be near your head/chest so the bar rolls away from you? As it stands it looks like it would roll into your body.

      I knew I could hit this weight (famous last words lol), and I rarely fail lifts. Incline doesn’t worry me with failing since I can hold it and literally just stand up, or roll it down. I’m usually very anal about safeties, but I knew I could hit this…
