Bench Press or Floor press?

[callador]

I think the Tower 200 would work better for MMA, especially if you are ready to get crazy.

That thing rocks! On a side note, I think if you do the floor press with a bosu ball between your legs, you will get maximal results for MMA. Just be sure to lock the ball in a traingle when you bring the weight down.

If this catches on, they will call it the "Callador Press"!!!

Hahaha I like the idea of that XD u even got a name for it too lol I'll have to test that out.

and just so everyone else knows I'm not a newbie to weight lifting or lacking strength levels. I do bench press a lot but I just wanted to know if I should change to floor press lol obviously not XD

Floor press should be used as an auxiliary to the bench press to strengthen the mid point of the lift. It's not a replacement for it.

Yes, but from what I understand you are a fairly strong individual already...and my assumption (which could be wrong) is that the TS is nowhere near close to rivaling your strength levels. So full ROM benching would be my recommendation for the gentleman.

i would definitely do just the bench press for a while, untill i get to a certain level of strength
but i would later add the floor press as well coz it's a great assistance exercise

i would never do just the floor press
