To increase pec strength you need to overload the muscle. To overload the muscle you can work it through increased range of motion. A cambered bar has 4 inches more depth. Blocks and pads can cut it down to an inch but I am working out with minimal help. I chose to use a bent bar known as the Buffalo Bar.
With age or aggressive pharmaceutical use, a pec tear is a risk with increased stress on the pecs. I have the age but not the pharmaceuticals. Doing the increased range bench press is a stretch that feels great followed by a tremendous muscular pump. If I get four workouts with this bar in before May 2nd, I should be able to get a few more reps out of the car bench press. The weights still have not been posted. I am hoping for a lighter vehicle and more reps instead of six people getting a zero in this event.
Leg day tomorrow. Thirty-one days left to train..
