Blast Your Bench program promises to add 50 lbs to your bench. And to make it even more amazing claim, you should be able to do so in just 3 short weeks. Sounds too good to be true, does not it?

If you are not familiar with Blast Your Bench routine, it is developed by Lee Hayward, a well-know strength coach. Of course, that itself is nothing new. There have been countless of bench press workouts developed and promoted by professionals and average Joe's alike. And, just like Blast Your Bench program, they too promised amazing results in short time.

So the obvious questions you are now asking are – does Blast Your Bench delivers on its promise; and how is Blast Your Bench routine different from all the others. The short answers would be: Yes, it does deliver, and it is very different.

In fact, the success of Blast Your Bench program lies in the fact, that it is like no other out there. It breaks many rules that you are now probably recite like benching Bible. The biggest heresy of the program is in the frequency of the workouts. The program lasts only 3 weeks, but you workout your bench several times each week. The weights are heavy, the breaks are fairly short and the intensity will cause your body to scream in pain.

Remember the times when you just started out and you could see increase of your bench press strength grow exponentially literally from one day to the next one? It was due to the body being bombarded with new impulses that it never experienced before. And I'm sure you noticed, that the gains were dramatic, not slow and steady. And that's what Blast Your Bench does to your body too.

It stimulates your body in just 3 weeks because the intensity is almost overwhelming and your body simply needs to adopt. Just like when you were a bench press beginner and every exercise gave your muscles an impulse it needed to adopt to by getting bigger and stronger. It itself is not a new concept, after all, short, but frequent and intensive workouts were successfully practiced in former Eastern Bloc. What makes Blast Your Bench concept unique is that it takes this concept and applies it only on one exercise – bench press.

So yes, it does work. Many lifters tried it with great success. What you need to realize though is, that you will be given precise instructions you need to follow. And trust me, although it is just for three weeks, the intensity will make it feel like eternity. But if you are intermediate to advanced bench presser and you truly commit yourself to the program, you indeed could add 50 lbs to your bench press. It's 3 weeks only. The question is – are you hard core enough to go through this bench press hell?
