My bench sucks

[DTOX]

My benchpress sucks, and I know part of the reason is that my triceps and shoulders are giving out long before my chest even gets going.

Anything I can do to workout my chest more and tris/shoulders less when benching?

DTOX - Here's a thread from a few days ago that might help you out:

Try tightening your rhomboids (the muscle the goes along your spine) this should alleviate some pressure on the shoulders.

Thanks!

Guess I'm not the only one with this problem

One thing I have to say is that attitude is everything. I used to go around saying My Bench SUCKS all of the time and it did. I refuse to say that anymore and have a positive outlook on it and I must say that the mental part of my game has helped the physical. Dont accept that sucky bench anymore!
