Are you new to bench pressing? Have you been benching for a while now and stuck at a plateau. Well in this post, I’m going to be going over a few ways that’s going to enable you to instantly increase your bench. First of all, it’s the way you arch your back. Don’t lay flat on the bench. Instead, you want to have your back arched. Have you ever wondered why you can lift more on incline benches more than the flat bench? It’s because with the incline bench, you don’t have to resist gravity as much. And the arch is one way to replicate that incline bench. Next, you need to understand how to correctly grip the bar. I want you to wrap your fingers around the bar and make sure you’ve wrapped your thumb around it as well and then squeeze as tight as you can. This will instantly allow you to bench more. One of the ways you get injured by benching, is by not using your wrist correctly. Never bend your wrists on the bench, this is a sure way of injuring yourself. Instead, you’re going to want to keep wrists straight and locked in that way. One of the ways you injure your shoulder and elbows, is by gripping the bar too far. What you’re going to want to do, is grip the bar as close enough together as you can in order for you to tuck in your elbows. This will take of the strain on your shoulders and elbows.
