Nutri-Sport & Full Potential Training tip: Bench with chains

September 11, 2009 by Ryan Irwin · Leave a Comment 

There are many ways to change variables in the gym to keep shocking the muscle to new heights of growth, development and strength.  One of these is the use of chains.  In this video, Ryan Irwin demonstrates bench press in the Full Potential Training Studio at Nutri-Sport with chains.

As demonstrated in the video, when the bar travels down, it lightens up and can be explosively lifted with an increased load at the top. This is very functional verses a machine as you have to stabilize and balance the bar. There are many exercises that they can be used for and are great for anyone looking to increase size, strength or power.
