the safest way to do any exercise with an olympic-bar
is inside a power-rack.
my maintainance-weight for bench-press and squats is two-hundreds and twenty-five pounds
(which is five or ten pounds below my lean body-weight).
it takes a year
for me to work the squat up to three-hundreds and fifteen pounds
(leaving the bench-press at my maintainance-weight).
the next year
the the squats immediately drop to two and a quarter
and the bench-press slowly rises to three-fifteen.
the next year
the squats get their turn, again.
my max has never been higher than three-fifteen.
perhaps having three big wheels on each end of the bar
is a psychological barrier for me,![]()
but, long clavicles is my explaination — when questioned.![]()

I mean if you have adjustable height for weightbar, then adjust height very low. And if have adjustable bench seat, then adjust seat in very slight incline. In this way you can basically unrack the weight by taking very deep breadth which expands the rib cage and the weight slides to your chest in automation. Then perform reps to failure. After you can't anymore move the weight from your chest, take a deep breadth, and if you are good fit, the expanding rib cage racks the weight back. If its little bit higher a little shoulder pump may be needed.

80 kgs, at 70 kgs in bodyweight.
My max was once at 100 kgs, but only one rep. But it was dangerous.
