In this video, I’m hitting a Shirt Benching session from 11/5, where I’m working up to 575 lbs for 6 singles. Shirt benching, or bench pressing with a lifting shirt, is a technique used in powerlifting to handle heavier weights by providing additional support and tension throughout the movement. It's a great way to push beyond your raw bench press numbers and develop explosive power in the chest, triceps, and shoulders.

I’ll take you through the process of setting up for a shirt bench press, how to get the shirt positioned properly, and the key differences between raw and equipped bench pressing. You’ll see the approach I take with heavy singles, focusing on bar control, explosive power out of the chest, and maintaining good technique under a heavy load. Shirt benching requires a high level of precision and technique, and it’s essential to get the right fit and positioning to maximize performance.

Whether you’re new to shirt benching or just looking to learn more about equipped lifting, this video offers a close-up look at a heavy session. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more strength training and powerlifting content!
