Sometimes, I dont take only a shoulder-width grip while bench pressing. I take a very wide grip- in such a way that my chest muscles stretch when I spread out my hands to take the grip. Doing this, I can still bring the bar very low without hurting my shoulders. Will this grip help me engage my chest muscles more during bench press? I have a feeling that doing this will put a lot of weight on my chest instead of my shoulders, thus help me develop my pectorals.
Thanks.

Yesterday, I started my rep by doing bench press at 155lb. Accidentally, I bounced the bar off my chest a few time and now I have chest pain. I do feel a bit of a sharp pain on the center right side of my chest but more intense when I cough or sneeze…. PLEASE HELP!

The bench press is a popular weight lifting exercise that works most specifically the chest. Can the average man bench press his own weight?

I’ve bought a few light set of weights recently, but the thing is my apartment is not that big and can’t hold a bench, which means i won’t be able to do bench press. What i’m wondering is, can i still develop a good chest without doing bench press?

I’ve started to bench press but I’ve realized that my shoulders and triceps are doing all of the work. How do I get my chest to do most the work?
I do bench and everything around 5 but then is it bad to do 100 pushups or so before i sleep? i know you need rest but am i hurting anything doing it on the same day?
