ok not to hard to answer hopefully i get as many answers as the million threads about the shoes.. anyways here they go.
1. The bar i bench with is the standard 45lb bar you get from ****s sporting goods or sports authority. I bench 270 (max) do they use a different bar for competitions? and would that affect the weight i can use? I figured 45lb bar is a 45 lb bar... but just want to check with the experts.
2. Whats the closest grip you can use in a compeition. I can use a close grip both hands on the smooth part of the bar and pause on my chest with 270.. Would that be a legal grip? Cuz i have a sneaky suspcion my close grip is higher then regular grip...
