Proper way to bench press

[e2]

use close grip if you wanna grow your bench

I was bench pressing the other day and someone came up to me and was making fun of me with his friend saying that I was bouncing the weight off my chest. I don't see a problem with that because I see guys on video doing it all the time. What is the purpose of bringing the bar down and pausing and then going back up versus just going down and up right away

Do you want muscle? Slow down.

If you bouncing of your chest it is much easier, try slow press, better results for sure

Focus on the fact....maybe he is trying to help in a genuine way......

If someone laughing at you it’s prob excessive, slow down for less injury
