The bench press is the single most popular traditional resistance training exercise in the world. You could go into the most rudimentary of gyms in the deepest, darkest regions of the Congo and you will find a bench press. It's usually the first piece of equipment that guys buy when they start training at home. Should you happen to train in a commercial fitness center, your worthiness, in terms of strength, is often related to your capacity to perform the exercise with substantial resistance. Being able to bench a ton of weight is a badge of honor and is highly prized, establishing one's status in the gym world pecking order. As such, the bench press has the reputation of being the most revered resistance training exercise in the gym. But, does it deserve that reputation?
