Bench Press = 530 LBS “When I started you program I was struggling to get past 475. I was constantly dieting to stay in the 165 division. Since your program I am now up to 530 and improving. I have moved to the 181 division and am trying to get the world record of 570. Hopefully I will continue the great gains.”		KENT SPIRES Homestead, FL Increased Bench: 55 lbs Time Period: 11 Weeks Current Bench: 530 lbs Height: 5′8 Weight: 181 lbs Age: 30
Bill Manlove – Bench: 545 I am 39 years old and turn 40 in October. I stand 5′ 8″ and I weigh 205lbs. I am happily married with 2 daughters which are 16 years old and 6 years old. Before my career started at Foot Locker, INC I was studying to become a personal trainer through ISSA but found the two jobs to be a little too demanding along with my family. I still consult and actively build individual fitness programs but doubt I’ll ever be able to do it full time because of the lack of money in fitness in Kansas. About 8 years ago I won the first and only Geary County Bench Press competition hitting 405lbs and weighing 180lbs. I first got involved with Critical Bench when I went to the 2001 Mr. Olympia and I’ve been an active supporter every since. You have written the bible of bench press and anyone wanting to break records whether or not it’s their own or a world record would be stupid if they didn’t involve Critical Bench. I sent several pictures because I wasn’t sure what you needed but would prefer to use something with a full face shot so my supporters know its me. If anyone ever gets out this way I would be happy to work out with you or have you as a witness. I hope to hit 585 by the end of the year but we’ll see. Thanks for all your help and be sure to look for me to join DJ Jones, Harry Woods, Kent Spires and Nick Griffin when we hit the 600lb club. If you have any questions please let me know. My work email is bmanlove at footlocker.com and this one is bmfitness68 at yahoo.com. Remember, train like a freak. Bench Press = 500 LBS DJ is the first person to graduate from our 400 lb club and advance to the 500 club. His bench just keeps rising and rising. Look for him to be an up and coming competitor.

“How To Increase Your Bench Press By 50 Pounds in 10 Weeks!”

Dear Friend, If you’re interested in taking your training to the next level, you want to build bigger muscles, and drastically increase your bench press, than this will be the most important letter you have ever read. Here’s why: There’s an amazing workout routine called “The Critical Bench Program – Increase Your Bench Press 50 Pounds in 10 Weeks.” I have personally used this 110% guaranteed sure-fire system to build a 400 + bench press and it has helped over 5,000 others do the same. This book is truly amazing. Here’s a small sample of what it reveals: How to train smart so that you avoid over training. Your muscles need time to rest and recover. They grow between workouts not during workouts. Over training is the #1 mistake made by lifters of all levels and we’ll make sure it doesn’t happen to you. Why stretching and warming up is so important if you want to bench big weight. Lifting heavy weights can take its toll on the body, but with our warm-up routine you’ll keep your rotator cuffs healthy and avoid the aches & pains that many suffer from. The secret to training for strength is low reps. That’s right 5’s, 4’s, and even singles. In my experience muscle is directly related to strength gains. As you get stronger your muscle will get bigger. How to mix things up and add variation to your training. When you do the same workout over and over your body gets used to it and stops responding. Your program adds variables to keep your body guessing. Why you shouldn’t pre-exhaust your muscles when trying to increase your bench press. Pre-exhausting your muscles can be a great training method but it’s not applicable when you are trying to up your max. For example, you cannot train triceps before chest. If you do, your bench will go nowhere fast since the bench involves the use of the tri’s. If they’re already tired how are they going to help you bench press? How successful clients get in the right mindset for a big day at the gym. The bench press is a very mental lift. Why is that you can bench 300 but not 315? Does it have to do with the three plates on each side of the bar? Or maybe you can do 295 but not 300, because 300 sounds heavier. We’ll teach you how to be mentally tough and how you can visualize your success with an Iron Mind. Why technique is so important. I’m confident if you adjust your form, whether it be your grip, the angle of your press, or the placement of your elbows you’ll see a significant difference without changing anything else. Exactly how long you should be resting between sets when you are training for power and strength. Why you can’t believe supplement ads. Did you know that almost every major bodybuilding magazine is owned by a supplement manufacturer? This makes it almost impossible to find reliable information about what really works and what gives you the most bang for your buck. Supplements are good for two things, insurance and covenience. If you don’t get enough food they act as insurance, and if you live a hectic lifestyle they can be convenient. Supplements aren’t necessary to succeed on this program, but if you want some cutting edge suggestions we have proven recommendations for you based on real life experience as well as scientific research. Why your lifestyle habits will affect your training. We’re not going to put you on a strict diet, but if you think poor nutrition, partying, and sleep deprivation won’t affect your performance in the gym your greatly mistaken. Why it’s so critical to have an exact goal and to track your progress. How a lifting buddy can assist you perform classic training methods like forced reps, ½ reps, negatives, & speed work. Learn how to use proper “assistance exercises” to propel your bench press strength through the roof. Why spending more than an hour in the gym per day is counter-productive. And much, much more! Pretty amazing don’t you agree? But don’t take my word for it. Listen to the success stories of real people who have put the Critical Bench Program to the test with unbelievable results.

Hi Mike, “Being so tall and having such long arms the bench press has always been an exercise that has lagged behind in development for me. Football programs I had used in the past just weren’t cutting it for me. I highly recommend the Critical Bench Program because I increased my max from 380 to 420 during the off season. It wasn’t easy but nothing worth having ever is.” Steve Konopka, Las Vegas Gladiators “I’m a drug free lifter that competes in the WABDL. The Critical Bench Program helped me smash some mental and physical barriers. 450 seemed like an impossible goal considering that is what I was pressing for negatives before starting the program. I’m very pleased with the results and highly reccommend this routine.” Sid Scardina, Greenwell Springs, LA “I purchased the critical bench workout to get to a 500 max.I followed the program to the tee my bench went from 465 to 500 plus in the short time of 11 weeks. I continued on my muscle mass grew and the strength continued to go up I broke the Alabama state record with a 540 press at weight of 210 in the WABDL world championship held in Reno, NV 2002. The program has worked so well for me that I presently have a 580 lb at the same body weight with more lean mass.The work has allowed me to compete in bodybuilding and powerlifting.I would to send you some photos and info to join the 500 club ; 600 is my goal or 3 times my bodyweight and still compete in both sports.” Harry Woods, bigiron600@yahoo.com “After doing a bodybuilding show I was ready to regain my size and strength. I also needed to increase my bench fast. The Critical Bench Program was the answer. I was really impressed with the program. It felt like I was getting stronger every week. And not just my bench but my whole body. This program is a must for anyone looking to put on size and strength. Thanks Critical Bench” U.S. Marine, Randy Jackson “I had been stuck at the 300# plateau for almost a year, and was skeptical at first. But with this program based on Progressive Overload Training, I was astounded by the gains in strength that I made in just 10 weeks. The training tips were invaluable!” Dr. Brad Bartos, M.D. – San Diego, CA
