2-Board Press
This is my favorite Max Effort exercise, along with the 3-Board Press. It is performed just like the regular bench press, except for you will be eliminating the bottom half of the bench with 2 2x6's nailed together. This is the last ME exercise I do before a meet, or taking a max in the gym. It serves as a good indicator of just where my bench will be. I also like to do it as the very first exercise of a 10-week training cycle. That way I can see just how much strength I have gained during a training period. The grip is typically wider than the 3-board. I use pinky or middle finger on the ring.
