Ermantroudt,

I tried the pause on my DE bench work on sat. both my partner and I were faster than ussual.

My guess is you also used a pause even with the bands.

I have added the pause in on a regular basis now, and will continue to use the pause until it does not provide the results I want. It helps me get the proper groove on the bar, resulting in a faster press. I think the pause works best for lifters who have not developed a premenant bar path.
