Watch your shoulders push at the end of the lockout on the bench press...

That is a good way to tear/injure a rotator cuff...

So what do you do?

 

[b fold the truth]

You should press back into the bench not press up... Your shoulder blades should be touching behind your back...always.

Tuck the elbows in, touch to the upper abs/LOWER chest, big air, tight arch, straight line...

I'm already lowering the bar to my sternum

thanks for the tips, I'll get it sorted next workout!

Looking good CCJ! Even to me though (amateur), the bench did look a bit out of form.

 

[coolcolj]

still not in the groove that's why its wobbly - I've been changing grip width, bar placement etc a fair bit lately

Good work on the Pr's.

I need to work on my bench form too

I don´t believe that the 70 degree bent over will be efective.
