when you bench like that, not locking out at the top keeps tension on the muscles the whole time. My best friend was a D2 3x national championship lineman and lifts this way. huge mofo
when i try to bench that way I can't do as many reps, key is to not lock out. try it next time
thanks for info, makes sense
seems like he could go a bit further without locking out, but all good

The chewing gum thing is to help keep his mouth moist when he's cutting/dehydrating. Otherwise you can get pretty intense dry mouth.
id assume he dont have gum in mouth when lifting? or does he? increases chances of choking..... cause breathing in and out and such, for sure when head is back like on bench... seems dangerous
