Chest growing to the side instead of outward

I always use d-bells.

Whenever you grab a bar w/two hands, you are automatically locked into a movement.

Always? Even for flat bench

It's possible...You can get more of a contraction I reckon, but you can't load up a shitload of weight.

Bench presses with barbells help the ego I suppose.

Especially w/flat bench.

Why do you think u see so many pec tears while benching.

All the pressure hits the pec/delt tie in for the most part and SNAP!

The purpose OF THE PECS are to bring the arms across the body, that does not happen w/a bench press. With d-bells u can bring them together at the top thus addressing more of the actual function of the pecs themselves while also being able to press.
