I look for the guys who have 350 lbs and use STRICT form. Back stays on the bench, maybe even feet held up to prevent cheating.
Slow going down, no touching the chest to prevent bounce and slow going up.
350lbs with that form 6-8 times is impressive.
i agree...........form is very important........i just know i see way too many people in the gym doing their sets the wrong way.....working every muscle besides the one they are suppossed to be working...........just to get thur the set so they can say they benched all this weight meanwhile they are doing it so wrong.........
Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, THAT IS STRENGTH
