Hey man, getting back to you on your question. A pause bench is when you bring the bar to your chest hold it their motionless for a second then press it and repeat. It is the opposite of touch and go. Hope this helps

Those are Chef's pants I got at Chef works dot com. But I got another pair the other day at Chef wear dot com that is the same price and way better quality. http://www.chefwear.com/store/ item.asp?ITEM_ID=142&DEPAR TMEN T_ID=34& I plan on doing a fitness/cooking show, so I always walk around dressed in Chef's clothes to get into the spirit. :)
