Thread: Proper Bench Form

Tuck those tris to your lats. Keep your elbows in front of the bar. You will prevent a shoulder surgery and your lifts will climb like no other.

All dumbbells different grips and motions
It works well and doesn’t irritate my shoulder bc it’s a diff movement

I used to tell my benchers to imagin they had a pencil squeezed (gripped) in their armpits between the triceps and lats. To try not to drop the pencil throughout the lift. I'd remind them of it until it was second nature.
