well... i cannot actually perform bench presses with overloaded barbells ... i had injured myself long ago... so i really have to do proper form and correct weight in these exercises...

in addition to that.. i also make sure i have a spotter...

some people... they just put the bar on their stomach... then try to move it away from their body... but of course.. it wouldnt be possible with too much weight... ...

some lifters actually cheat .. so they are not performing the real press... i saw one guy actually just move his shoulders.. (not the arms) in doing bench presses... and thus he can perform his 'alleged' heavy weight... lol..

do not perform bench presses beyond your usual capability...
some guys do a one-time maximum lift... but this is done to determine what the maximum capability of the guy is... and this is done with a spotter...
