Benchpress
-
Why do people like to place their feet on the bench when Bench-pressing?, not only it is wrong but dangerous.You are also preventing the back and leg drive if you put your feet on the bench as opposed to arching your back and tipping your toes.

sum do it to get good balance. it is not wrong and dengerous if u noe how to place ur leg the proper way. i put my leg, but i dont give any pressure to it.
like i said, it is for good balance. -

yeap have seen the above such cases too.
Have even tried it.
Imho , its not very good technique , bench press supposed to train the chest ,
however , using the above technique as well as the variation of legs bent above the bench , some of the abodominal muscles can be put into play to lift the weight.
I suppose its good at the end of the set when your unable to even lift the weight off the chest with conventional means , then to push yourself harder you use this technique i guess -

it is always wise to have a spotter with you when you're doing gym... it not only enables you to perform the set and rep in a perfect form but also helps you to lift weights that seems hard to complete and prevent injuries...Originally posted by borntolive:i cant push to my real limit cause no one spot me.. -
