Скачать или смотреть Arching in the BENCH PRESS | Building goal based strategies

In my opinion, the arch we use in the bench press should scale and adapt based on our goals and the task at hand.

At times, I think when lifters talk about bench press arches they make it into a black and white topic with hard definitives, but that's not the best way to approach this topic especially when we take into account the contextual differences of various arch strategies.

An arch in the #BenchPress is a compression strategy utilized to increase force production, support stability, and the display of strength across various intensities.

When we consider this, we can take the bench press arch a step further and break down arching strategies based on the task at hand. In this video, I discuss various types of #BenchPresses and arches covering:

There's no right or wrong way to express an arch during the bench press as long as it's a conducive strategy for the task at hand.

For example, we have to ask what our goals are for the set/our training, who's performing the press, is there a sports goal, and much more when using various #BenchPressArch strategies!
