What kind of question is this. If you know forearms are the limiting factor for sure, then just add some forearm exercises to the end of your routine and rely less on straps (if you were doing that on your pull days). Wrist curls, reverse wrist curls, and reverse curls are all you need.

>>77120833
Wut? The fuck are you doing that you're burning out your forearms on bench? The weight should be resting on your palms and you should only need to grip it tight enough to keep it there. You're not white knuckling it are you? Also whenever any part is bottlenecking a lift, you isolate that part and work it harder.

>>77120833
Use a barbell.
Add auxiliary dumbbell work.
Pop a can of spinach before each set.

>>77120833
How long have you been lifting? If you're a beginner, just continue training your whole body, including the forearms.

This
How the fuck are your forearms giving out unless your form is insane

OP confirmed highly retarded

I have relatively bigger forearms and i have been struggeling with the same thing now im doing a lot of dumbell work and consistently progressively overloading. I think doing heavy dumbell lifts throughout the week will strengthen them. Definely dont neglect arm/pull day.

Similiar problem here, I cannot simply push the dumbbels up at first rep. But in my case, I feel that underdeveloped tricep is blocking me. Currently I am stuck on 30kg dumbbels, I was able to press 32kg jsut fine, but then my left arm was failing and it atlmost disclocated my arm joint when I was trying to push, hopefully it did not rekted my face

Film yourselves pressing. The most likely issue, and what was happening to me, is that your forearms arent stacked ie they aren't completely vertical. Pic related, if it's like the bottom, especially in the lower half of the movement, your forearms are loaded more than they should be to keep the dumbbell stabilized, you have poor leverage and you aren't able to exert the maximal amount of vertical force on the dumbbell during the press. I have long forearms and this was the issue for me.

>to avoid bad bench form, avoid looking like an abstract image of a merchant
Wow it was really that easy the whole time?

>>77121873
lol

Is this retard calling his triceps "forearms" or is he somehow benching with the worst form of all time? lol you are dumb as fuck OP. lol fuck you

>>77120833
Then keep doing it until they don't force you to quit
It's that easy

Yes, what you are describing is what happens when your foreaems fail before chest

>>77121998
Many people don't maintain proper forearm stacking right from the start of a set as a result of poor technique. This results in the forearms getting prematurely fatigued because they're performing unnecessary stabilization during the entire set. Are you being obtuse on purpose or?

>>77120977
these. It's super fucking weird.
Tricep/delts cucking chest - sure. But forearms? wtf?

actually to be fair I never really did dumbbell press - maybe with super thick dumbbells and if you're very untrained you could have trouble keeping them in your hands MAYBE

>>77122064
I mainly DB press and it's just as weird as you thought it was

>>77120833
do wrist exercises before, thank me later faggot

>>77122121
I exercise my wrists for 2 hours a day looking at naked anime girls

>>77121998
the forearms are almost certainly not failing even if your elbows are not stacked. the forearms simply don't do much in a bench press regardless of what your form looks like. >>77122002 is wrong. it would be a tricep failure. >>77121901 is likely correct, OP is probably just (actually) ESL

>>77121873
So the JM press was invented by the j.. ohnonono
