Getting an F6 Bench Shirt

[LiftingKid]

Well, I finally decided to invest in a bench shirt and went with the F6. The plan is to start working lockout via 3,4, and maybe 5 boards and continuing most of my current bench training (back work,shoulders,etc). I will also bench w/the shirt once every 3-4 weeks. Any ideas in terms of getting the groove down and training for a shirted bench?

i learned the grove just by loading some weight on it and practicing reps, i havent got it to touch yet though

I got mine about 6 weeks ago and managed to get it to touch after 3 weeks and hit a solid rep on the 4th week. Keep your arch tight throughout and get a good spotter for when you dump it over your face.

edit: In regards to training it all depends. The MM guys live in theirs while others don't use it nearly as much.

I would use it every other week until you get it to touch and learn the groove.

You will get better with practice. Do plenty of work in it, but don't neglect the other movements.

buy a belt to keep it tight if u havent got one yet.

the first time, you'll get major battle scars. 2nd time using it, you'll get used to it and figure your groove their on. i used my f6 about 6 times now and the only issue i have is keeping it tight. what i did was have a partner pull the shirt down (front + back) right before the lift.
