I've always liked Dave's simple, no bull explanations. They are very easy for anyone to understand.

Yes I totally agree and that is why I thought I would post this. Very easy to understand no matter what lifting experience, and it really helps.

With all due respect, I have to disagree with his point on the bar path. I feel most of the best benchers push up at an angle, not straight up.

Hmmm! I knew all this but I guess I need to try tucking the elbows in. Learn something new everyday...

That video might be a bit outdated as far as shirted benching is concerned. With the newer shirts with lower grooves, I believe bench specialists like Metal Militia and others advocate throwing it back over your face (or close to it) and flaring hard at the top.

Pete, I think that the best of the best, shirted or raw, have a sloped barpath from touch to lockout. Just watch the video's posted on this website.
