Didnt even see that one. Well shit, I've got a plan for the next 2+ yrs haha
Right , the 400lb Bench plan is a year long program basically with deload workouts every other workout . Im doing a modified version of this now...

They finally got a buffalo bar at my gym. I'm pretty excited to test it out when I switch back to low bar soon.

Start using it for bench press too heard the angle helps a lot with shoulder and elbow issues as well as the extra ROM will help you rocket off your chest when you switch back to a straight bar

OGH, if u click on the bench 400lbs link it does not appear in the program that there is any deload, just looks like you bench those numbers for 4 weeks then go to the next month... am i missing something? I thought there should be a deload somewhere....

Haha i just saw the picture before i read the post and just thought "dude broke the fuckin the bar"
Your right---Actually the 300lb program has deload days the 400lb program doesnt , you stick with one set of lifts (3-4 sets) every month before progressing each month with the 400.

And I'm assuming that, if I don't hit 305 in the 12 wks, I just start over the program and do it again. Then on to the 400.
Only question I wanna figure out is how to incorporate my Slanger in this program.
OGH do you think it'd be beneficial to overload with the slingshot at the end?
I would try to finish the program just like it is . No Slinger , just finish the program , get your 305lb bench then see what you can do with the Slinger now....Randy Herring also stresses NO max attempts until you finish the program ...save it til the end . Goodluck
If you missed the 300lbs at the end of the program , go back to week 10 (275x3) then start from there . Usually if a person can pump 275lbs 3 times he can usually get 300lbs . A friend of mine did this twice and got the 300 on the 2nd try .

Figures, I got mine week before last! My story, day late, dollar short!
Have you tried it on flat bench yet?
Don't even think about using it to bench with if you have had any recent pec strains or had a pec tear. The added stretch at the bottom is rough on the pec muscles.
I do realize most will never have a pec tear and using the buffalo bar for benching could be helpful in those cases. I'm a bit sensitive as I'm going on five months since a pec tear which was relatively minor and didn't require surgery and I'm still having to worry about and making extensive use of board presses trying to keep from retearing it.

It was not there tonight when I was there. I'm wondering if it belongs to someone and they took it home. Sucks if so.

Got 405 for 12 today on deadlifts. Off the juice entirely and weighing 189 morning weight. Not too bad considerin it was after 6x3 deficit deadlifts and 5x6 bench. Fresh I think I could crank 15 out cause even number 12 moved fast but being beltless and fatigued didn't want to grind the 13th rep out
Nice work. Not only would I not have the strength for that many reps but no way I would have the air for it.
