I suggested db presses MIGHT help strengthen the stabilizers. 20 reps? I don't know about that. If you're trying to keep from falling off the ball then you might be emphasizing the stabilizers more, but I don't know if it will really impact your bench.

Workout A: A1: BB Rows A2: DB Rows 3x8 402 tempo and 601 tempo..
Workout B: A1: Lat Pull Down A2: 3x8 Pull Overs 402 tempo and 601 temp
Most CERTAINLY did not suggest that. More lat work? Yes. Just for hypertrophy? Worthless if it is non-functional hypertrophy (worthless for helping your bench, I mean.) OVT was your idea. For hypertrophy, not stength? Just adding mass to your lats is not per se going to help your bench. I gave you specific ideas, but you didn't read them before posting this.....might have to keep it to the journal if I'm going to be misquoted

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
