Don’t Get Benched by the Bench Press

I’m sure you’ve heard—they’re testing the bench press now.

Pause.

Don’t lay down and get lifting.

Going all-in on the bench press can ruin your performance.

Going all-in on ANY movement can ruin your performance.

If your bench press is weak, yeah, work on it.

But don’t be absorbed by it.

Keep your fitness well-rounded.

And hit the books.

Do your homework.

Research past competitions.

Evaluate your personal strengths and weaknesses.

Apply what you’ve learned.

If you’re scared of it, that’s a hint you should do it more often.
