What is going on with your lower body when benching? While the bench press mainly uses the pectoralis major, anterior deltoid, and triceps, the lower body provides additional power. Without stability and power from your core and legs, you lose potential strength, can plateau quickly, and run the risk of injury.

these tools in your kitchen prove that eating healthy isn't expensive. They also keep you honest, on track, and on budget. When it comes to items labeled as 1 piece or 30 grams, the scale is the deciding factor of the quantity.

: While the judges have checklists for every lift, how your body executes lifts is equally important. For squats and deadlifts, you need to keep your feet planted. For bench press, your entire body requires stability and control. Just because you complete the judges checklist, does not mean you completed a technically perfect and safe lift.

: squats and deadlifts are posterior loaded exercises meaning the majority of your weight should be distributed through your heels and midfoot. Your toes however should not come up, but grip the floor to create better stability to help prevent you from falling backwards.

when competitive lifting for squats, the main focus for judging is depth. In a previous post, we discussed the impact of hand placement and grip on the bar. In this post, we are focusing on the glutes and abdominal area. Once lifters drops into the pocket, they need to be able to stand back up - ideally using their glutes and midsection. There are many ways to train the glutes and abs to work, such as a box squat. In the top pictures, the lifter benefited from a little bit of back weight to help activate her abs. In the bottom pictures, the lifter simply needed to face objects creating a wall to eliminate the excessive lean forward - forcing her to engage the glutes immediately.

When competing in bench, there isn't a timer on the chest pause/press command. When the bar comes to a complete stop on your chest, the press command is issued.

many variables contribute to the deadlift starting position. In these pictures, two lifters are pulling sumo - one because of torso length and the other because of leg length. The conventional lifters have different starting heights because of leg length relative to torso.

your hand placement on the bar for a squat is almost as important as your bracing. Keeping your hands closer to your shoulders creates greater tension on the bar providing better control. In the top picture, you can see the lifter comes forward with a wider grip. In the bottom picture, not only does the lifter get a little more depth in his squat, but his torso stays more upright and he has better control through the entire lift.
