I never lift with clips when lifting alone.
learned this the hard way.

but unlike breh, I actually lifted it, but there was a glimpse of fear as the bar started lowering, then adrenaline b2b a primal growl kicked in, and I got it. Ill never lift with cuffs alone ever again :pachaha:

A bench press block would also serve as a nice little buffer as well.

I never lift near my 1RM. But if you're in this situation, you have three options: Roll the bar toward your hips and sit up (roll of shame), lift without collars and let the weight slide off on one side then the other, or roll the bar toward your neck like this fool did. The latter two are way safer and easier to execute.

I lift with safety arms, so I don't have these problems.
Same, I have safety arms made of black gas pipe I had cut at home depot, ain't no reason to lift without safety equipment your supposed to push yourself to the limit why wouldn't you want to be safe.

I read through and still haven't seen the way to get out of that situation.

If you are benching and you get stuck, NEVER try to lift a 2nd time! That shyt is literally impossible. What you do is roll the weight down your torso to your waist and then just sit up.

Nothing gets me pumped to lift heavy ass weights like some Ron Isley melodies.

Why are you ego lifting at home

Heavy ass dumbbells are expensive af but they were a game changer for me. I only use barbell for deadlifts and squats at home

405 and not even close to having it. That’s wild.

I would say the smooth sounds of the Isley Bros. kept him calm during that ordeal...
