How to Bench Press in 4 Steps 👍🏼 4 Other things to know 1️⃣ Breathing: Before lowering the bar, INHALE & hold your breath (flexing your core tightly “bracing”) EXHALE as you near the top 1/2 - 1/3rd of the repetition. 2️⃣ Watching the Bar - Don’t do it. Instead, right before you lower, look at where the bar is in relation to the ceiling. Fix your eyes on that spot. When you press the weight back up - press it back to that spot on the ceiling you’ve been staring at. This can be magic for your rep consistency 🪄 3️⃣ Touching the Chest: The location of where the bar makes contact can vary between people. It should be below your shoulders. For Example, for some it may make contact at mid-sternum - Others, at the base of the sternum (the v-shape where the ribs meet) etc. 4️⃣ A Good Cue: After un-racking the bar (before you lower) think about trying to “bend the bar” - This can help maintain the tension in your back — 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗯𝘆 @ASRV _ #BenchPress #BenchPressTips #bodybuilding #bodybuildingtips #rysesupps #davisdiley
