Benching with chains

jbennett Posts: 1,558 Joined: 2001/02/28	2008/02/16, 05:43 PM Here's a video of me benching with chains: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTUh2Nmd7gw That's on my 5th set with only 12 chains on each side. The first 3 were with 16 chains, 4th with 14, and the video is of just 12. If you EVER get the opportunity to lift with chains - DO IT!!! It is an absolutely incredible feeling. :dumbbell: -------------- --JBennett "I've up-ed my intensity.... now up yours!" "Pain is only weakness leaving the body."
