Newfag here. Someone mentioned "safeties" in the context

>>42798093
those adjustable metal rods in the rack that prevent the weights from falling on and crushing your chest in a bench

>>42798100
Okay thanks

>>42798100
Also, are they used in overhead press and squat too? or just bench?

>>42798112
use them in squat and ohp so u dont plop the weight on the floor and chop your neck off if u fail,

>>42798706
If you're scared of the barbell falling on your neck, you're doing standing incline bench press, not OHP.

>>42798706
>OHPing with safeties

those are some tall safeties man

>>42798718
>>42798728
u dont wanan fuckn pass out and h ave the weight fuckn slamming u into the ground, i have the safeties set the same height for my squats

>>42798777
if you're passing out while lifting then you don't need to be lifting brah

>>42798777
>>42798818

>>42798818
>>42798822
>happens even to elite powerlifters (for deadlifts mostly but still)
>hurr just fix your breath

with that being said it happens much less for me lately, but still does once in a while

For OHP tho i get massive quad cramps because i get so stiff

>>42798818
>>42798822
FUCK off cunt its called safety for a reason
anything can happen brah
chad can come behind u and give u the old snakeye
WHO knows bar could slip u could sneeze fuckn called safety for a fuckn reaSON

>>42798956
yeah and elite powerlifters die at early ages. Go fucking figure
>>42799002
you. you're just a pussy.

>>42798956
I don't give a shit if you're the world champion at deadlifting. If you pass out while doing it then you're a fucking retard and need to stop.

>>42799009
so ur that autist who takes the safeties off if there already on the rack
ok

>>42798728
>not doing pin press

>>42799039
>I have no real argument so let me resort to calling you autistic.
