Are you training your tri's? Your lats? Your shoulders? What does your routine look like?scout420 said:
SRY to jump in on your post 420!
But I'm having the same problem.
Failing out of the bottom of the lift.When I pick the weight up it does not have that"heavy"feeling.on the down stroke it still feels good.BUT when I touch my chest and get ready to push it out,I get stuck...my buddy can help me for about 3 inches and I can get it up then,hard due to straining my ass off trying to get it lifted.
Is there any other exercise I should be doing that would eliminate this.
I bust tris and shoulders are strong too.
My chest just sux.
Any help would be appreciated.

Ever think that you could be overtraining as well? Try this super secret routine:
Day one:
Squat 1 x 20
Stiff-legged Deadlift 1 x 12
Pull-up or Pull-down 2 x 12
Barbell Curl 1 x 20
--Rest 2-4 days--
Day Two:
Bench Press 1 x 10
Dip 1 x 10
Military Press 2 x 12
Abs (eh, whatever you like)
Add 1-5 lbs each exercise each workout. Eat 2-3X your bw in protein a day.
Okay this is oversimplified but as I said before 90%+ of this board overtrains. You are not Ronnie Coleman.

What if, instead of doing so much you never grow, those 3-4 exercises per body-part to ensure “complete development” of all “aspects” of a muscle. What if all you did was:
Squats 400 x 20
Stiff-legged deadlifts 375 x 15
Bench Press 315 x 12
Pull-Up with 100 lbs extra weight x 12
Military Press Body-Weight x 10
Calf-Raise 700 x 15
Weighted Sit-Up 175 x 12
How much bigger would you be than you are now, and what muscle would be under-developed?!?!?!?!?!?
What if that was ALL THE LIFTS YOU ACTUALLY DID ON A WEEK-TO-WEEK BASIS, BUT ACTUALLY DID THAT AMOUNT OF WEIGHT? AND SINCE THAT WAS ALL YOU DID YOU NEVER OVERTRAINED AND YOU WERE ALWAYS ABLE ADD A LITTLE AMOUNT OF WEIGHT TO THE BAR. HOW MUCH FUCKING BIGGER WOULD YOU BE THAN YOU ARE NOW???????
