Presenter J.A. Graves will cover the basics of the bench press, including why it’s used as a key performance indicator (KPI) for upper body strength and the upper body injuries that can present challenges for the bench press. You’ll get detailed information on setup and execution for your clients and cueing details for both the descent and ascent. You’ll then learn about common compensations and common injuries before diving into variations of the bench press and biomechanical considerations. Graves provides perspective on additional considerations to keep in mind for individual clients, including discussion of client injuries. Finally, you’ll get variations, supplemental exercise options, sample programming, and best practice tips that will help you provide each of your clients with maximum results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLearning Objectives\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eName the prime movers involved in the bench press exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDemonstrate proper setup and performance of the bench press exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecognize common compensations in the bench press exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe different variations of the bench press exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain how different bench press grip widths influence muscle recruitment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatch the muscle recruitment pattern with the appropriate bench press variation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain variable resistance and its use with the bench press exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormulate an exercise program that focuses on building upper body strength and emphasizes horizontal pressing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe how to appropriately modify the bench press exercise for clients with a history of shoulder pain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe how to appropriately modify the bench press exercise for clients with a history of elbow pain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAudience\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCertified strength and conditioning professionals, personal trainers, and performance practitioners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--end tabDescription--\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-author\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn (J.A.)
