In this video, I’m focusing on shirt work with 550 lbs, working on my technique and strength with a bench press shirt. Shirt benching is an essential part of powerlifting training for those using equipped gear, as the shirt provides support and tension to help lift heavier weights. I’ll be hitting some controlled singles to focus on form, bar speed, and power output.

I’ll show you how to set up properly with the shirt, adjust the tension, and maintain good technique throughout the lift. The key to successful shirt benching is mastering the equipment while maintaining full control of the bar, especially when the shirt is helping with the lift’s lockout phase. This session is all about refining the technique and getting comfortable with the weight, as it requires both physical and mental preparation to lift efficiently.

If you're interested in equipped lifting or want to improve your shirt bench technique, this video will offer valuable insights. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more powerlifting tips and training updates!
