It seems that not a day goes by without a new training program on the market. What is different about Bench for Reps? Why should you spend your hard earned money on it? What is the advantage of bench repping your own body weight?

We must admit that we were bitter and twisted when we saw another training product. Bench For Reps is a program by the renowned Mike Westerdal. This is a guy who has a lot of clout in the world of fitness.

We put our world cynicism to one side and took the time to get down and dirty with the program that uses the same ethos that the NFL use to determine the strength endurance of their players.

We found out exactly what we were looking for.

What do you get for your money? Bench For Reps requires you to work out 4 times per week for an hour at a time. It is designed for people who know the difference between working out and real training. To train has an end goal in mind. It is what those who are serious about their strength do.

The same methods for determining a person’s endurance strength that the NFL use, the 225 Bench Press Test, is what Bench For Reps is all about. Every week, the program includes a metabolic conditioning session. The instant download program contains 8 videos, a PDF manual workout guide, and workout sheets, among other things.

Bench For Reps works on and corrects the 5 weaknesses that so many people suffer in their bench reps.

• Weakness 1 – Improper Form : Because if you’re not engaging the right muscles to perform a bench press, then you can’t apply maximum force – it’s as simple as that. With the Bench For Reps program you get immediate access to online tutorials, all laser focused at helping you perfect your technique.
• Weakness 2 – Your Max Strength is too Weak : Ooh – that’s a tough one to swallow, eh! But whether or not you admit it, the ability to bench press your own bodyweight a number of times is indicative of how strong you are. But by training in the correct manner, you can increase your strength, and therefore increase the performance of your bench press.
• Weakness 3 – Lack of Muscular Endurance : No matter how strong you might be, if you lack muscular endurance, then you’ll lose out on your bench press. Strength needs to be combined with endurance if you truly want to bench press with the best…
• Weakness 4 – Improper Weak Point Training : It’s all about addressing your weaknesses (and yes, we all have them), and carrying out the right exercises to turn these weaknesses into strengths…
• Weakness 5 – Poor Test Taking Technique : Because as with anything in life, your technique can be the difference between being a winner or loser!

Who is it for? If you are a football player who gets tested in the 185 or 225 bench press rep test, then you will get a huge amount of benefit from Bench For Reps. Ditto for anyone who competes in Bench for Rep. The bench rep technique will give anyone who trains a huge advantage.

This is a program for people who are already pretty fit. It’s not necessary for couch potatoes and fitness wannabees to apply.

The Cons

• Okay, so this isn’t a training program for those who’re not already in good shape. If you’re only at the beginning of your personal training path then this baby won’t be for you (yet…). But for those who’ve already commenced and are in okay shape already, then Bench For Reps is a method that will see your training results ramp up an incredible amount. Prepare to be amazed….
• Bench For Reps is a training program – and doesn’t really cover the nutritional and diet aspects of any regime. But if you’re at the level when you understand the importance of max strength in your training, then you’ve probably got the nutritional part pretty much sewn up already.

The bottom line. Bench For Reps is one of the most effective programs we have seen, if you want to increase your bench press. It doesn’t require you to sacrifice every waking hour to the gym, because who on earth has time for that? Spending pointless hours down the gym is last century.

Bench For Reps is the ideal way to see results, and to see them fast, whether you need to up your game for testing or want to use it as part of a training regime. We have to admit that you have delivered on this one. We salute you, Sir…
