This question always drives me crazy.  "How much do you bench press?"  Individuals with big bench presses are a dime a dozen.  Those who can move big weight in squats, deadlifts, and olympic movements have put in some serious time.  The bench press does have great benefits and despite some bad press (which all lifts have somewhere) and depending on the sport, it has great benefits for athletes.  I will be featuring some bench press items in the near future in my posts, so stay tuned for some great bench press information
