My view on Denim shirts...

[kingc_79]

Well, my raw bench is 225, and the most I ever benched in the Titan was 232...did that once, about a year ago.

I took the denim to Naz, and got 255, which I attribute to the shirt.

Kick ass at the meet!

thanks alot man...i plan to...hopefully ill get alil more out of the shirt on sat...i would love to get 20-30lbs from it....we'll see

Screwball.

We have tons of women and lightweight fellas using single and double denims.

All have added #'s to their benches over the poly.

Many are well below your percieved numbers of effectiveness.

What must be remembered here is not one style of shirt, or for that matter even the same cut of the same brand will work for all concerned.

Technique is as large a factor in the success of the lifter as strength.

But ultimitly, if the shirt doesn't allow you to bench where you are effective it is a moot point anyway.

Thanx Tim. Uh Liftbig.....

I think my problem was too much restriction on my cookies.

I think both of us will be seeing nice #'s in the near future!!!!

Disagree Bro....Sub 300 lifters using a denim on my team

Deb 235 raw 300 shirt
janet farone 185 raw 275 shirt 114 body weight
Jenny Burke 145 raw 250 shirt
Bonnie Graube 235 raw 300 shirt
Sandi McCaslin 185 raw 270 shirt

Screwball don't take this as an insult but it's like saying use and get used to crppy equipment before you ghet the good stuff, what does strength level have to do with ones ability to manipulate a shirt....

You are thinking stretch across the chest plate foir the shirt to be effective. While that does help, the key is support and spring under the triceps. I highly recommend the MM seminar. It is awesome. [/B][/QUOTE]

Thank you big fella, We'll be playing in the grand Ball room all month folks, make your reservations now...
