Is the reason you are because you dont do much benching or chest work as it isnt very important in strongman but you do alot of tri and shoulder work as that is very important in strongman?

Probably, although even when i was doing bench regularly when i first started out i was still weak on it. However recently i have been changing my form up with the help of someone and its helping my regular bench alot.

duct taping plates to a dumbell to make it 154lbs & than extending it over your head is pretty effing stupid.
He put up another video the other day of him doing it with a taped DB weighing 176lbs lol
i bet his from is worse then the first try.
form is awful on the skull crushers, elbows go down to the bench, and the music is hideous too, kinda like doing 1/4 squats since there's too much weight on the bar...
Yeah skull crusher (or nose breaker) poundage can vary hugely based on form. Keep your elbows way in tight and poundages will plunge. Great for helping you cheat out a few last reps, but so tempting to let your elbows spread out and get weight happy.
nahh he didnt make the lift. I never said his form wasnt bad, but to do what he calls skullcrushers with that poundage is still pretty impressive, even though it was pretty much turned into a JM Press. The db extension was kinda crappy too as the elbow came down, but again not many people could do what he did with the weight. The video he called nosebreakers was closest to good form.
