Anyone have a guide they followed when they first started back up? Trying to find a good routine overall

It's guys who throw weight on there they can handle and do quarter reps not the one who throw weight they can't handle. They control it. Is there a difference?

Of course, the guys who control the weight usually have bigger chests, the ones who slam it off their chest and look like they are having an exorcism on the way up usually don't
Like I saw this dude hit 315 last night and his *** came up just as much as the bar did.

So is a controlled quarter rep good?... I've seen guys do up top quarter reps, mid way quarter reps and the down low quarter reps? Make any sense? I don't do quarter reps I use to when I started. But it amazes me how swole these guys are quater repping but controlled. Not the regular ego Lifters

He's squeezing his chest and putting those muscles to work. Why question a big muscular dude lifting heavy?

Maybe they have a reason they are doing that? Trying to work on the lockout if they quarter rep up top or work on getting it off their chest if they quarter rep from their chest

Cuz this thread frowns upon quarter reps. We should add disclaimers to our criticism

If you can quarter or half rep a weight then you have complete control over it, this is for bench only obviously. Once you go from middle to top its all triceps so the chest is done with its job.
Most people swear by fully locking the reps out though, just think if all you do is half rep over ay ears time imagine how many reps you missed out on?

Got some of these for free from my vitamin store yesterday. They taste really good. Haven't tried the Cinnabon flavored ones. I don't really mess with bars ever but i could see myself actually paying for these one day
