Or I was thinking maybe take my car jack stands, they would allow a floor press, they are just high enough when fully extended and could fit in my ute tray box with the bumpers.
Or what about just doing over head presses, would they stimulate chest enough?
Hey mate...
Ive seen Markos comment that there is strong carry over from the over head press to the bench press... And not the other way around... Will see if I can find the comment...
Last I read Rip doesn't bench anymore... He only uses the overhead press...
If it where me I would use over head press... And finish with lots of push ups...
You can also put a plate on your back to load up your push ups... And put your feet on a bench or chair to increase the load...
How long you gone for...

The barbell press will sufficiently work the shoulder girdle.
If one wants to increase the size of their pecs, flys and or sphere lifting will directly target that area.
WTF is sphere lifting Andy, I never heard of it before. Is it lifting a heavy ball or ball shape object whilst laying in the bench press position?
Where are you going??
Most places in the country have a gym, even if you only train at a gym once a week and do the rest yourself.
Or
Take soma squat stands ( I just bought some for $20 on eBay) not much bigger than car stands for presses, bench, squats etc.
Cool, sounds like a good plan I traveled for several years working in the communications industry working in country NSW, loved it, but got over it after a few years, now starting to get interested again.I have no fixed location as yet, but I am currently trying to get into one of the mines as a green horn. This year I will be doing some pre-training in machinery and truck driving etc and getting the usual tickets etc. I don't know if it will actually happen, but I have a couple of mates that have done it. One started out washing trains and now drives a dump truck on 80gs a year, so it can be done....he said remote places give the best opportunities for green horns to get a start.
If the mines don't want me I will use the machinery tickets to hopefully get a start on the roads or with a machinery crew (means traveling allot).
The wife and kids will stay behind as they don't want to move but I can't stand not working full-time and really want to get some money rolling in. There is very little employment where we live and the study I'm doing is going to take another 3-4 yrs part-time so I want to do more than have part-time jobs that pay shit. I need an adventure Mick, and my relatonship is strong enough to handle one especially if there was enough financial encouragement, so who knows where I will end up mate.
I believe Markos was talking about strength carryover from overhead to bench press, not so much hitting the pecs.
Increase your overhead numbers and your bench numbers will increase.
If you have rings you just need to disadvantage yourself. Ring dips are awesome.
The press does work the clavicular head of the pecs, but doesn't do much for the sternal head. You could do barbell pullovers for the sternal head.Or I was thinking maybe take my car jack stands, they would allow a floor press, they are just high enough when fully extended and could fit in my ute tray box with the bumpers.
