Bench Press Techniques

Home » Blog » Bench Press Techniques

April 26, 2017 //  by Parisi School

One thing we see a lot while working with athletes is poor elbow positioning and lack of back tension when pressing. Lack of upper back tension and poor elbow positioning can lead to:

 

-Lack of shoulder stability during lift

-Pressing with a broken wrist

-Lack of lat activation

-Increased stress on the shoulder joint

 

Here are a couple videos from Cressey Sports Performance about the difference in elbow position during the bench press and a training technique for improving back activation and elbow positioning during the bench press.
