What is the bench?

Bench Press Shirt or Bench Shirt, as it is commonly called, is a specialized type of shirt, which is often used in the Bench Press of Powerlifting Competitions. Bench Press is an exercise in which the jack lies on the back and reduces the barbell until it touches the chest, and then tries to push it back into the arm length. Bench shirts not only help protect the shoulders and chest from the weight of the rod during exercise, but also allow the jack to raise significantly more weight than it did without carrying a shirt.

The earliest shirts of the bench, for the first time made in the age of 80, were mostly worn for protection, but developed in very sophisticated garments that most Powerlifters now wear for explicit purpose increases in the amount of weight they can raise. In the heart of physics Bench T -shirt lies the concept of stored energy. The typical shirt of the bench is very tight and is sewn together so that it is stretched even stronger over the chestík, because the rod is running in the bench. This can make it difficult very difficult - and even unpleasant - to lift the rod to lift, but the paycheck comes immediately after the jack is pressed again on the arm length. All energy stored shirt, when it is stretched during the lowering of the rod, is released and added to its own jack strength, increasing the force that is applied to the rod, leading to the jack is able to raise heavier weight than it would otherwise be possible.

Bench shirts are usually made of polyester, denim or canvas. They can be constructed from one, two or more layers of material, with other layers that are generally assumed to provide greater lifting force. Some shirts are closed at the back and others are held together with straps or even completely open. Personal preferences often play a role in which the shirts raise, but various federations of powerlifting also reduce which types of shirts are allowed in their competitions.

bench shirt is now the basis of meZi by professional powerlifters, but it is not necessary clothing for everyday enthusiast exercise or fitness. Those interested in PowerLifting training should look for professional coaching for lifting techniques and use the bench only after they become able to lift without one. It is also important that the jack should be borne in mind that the bench can provide an inaccurate estimate of the real force, and less weight should therefore be used if the bench shirt does not emerge. In addition, the bench presses - with a bench or without a bench should always be done with an observer, a person who stands behind the bench that is ready to help if the jack cannot press the Fupod rod with its own power.
