>get memed into arching my back during bench forever because le competitors do it for a shorter movement arc
>work on fixing my lordosis that i acquired from a lifetime of autism
>accidentally activate core the "wrong" way during bench and flatten myself out on it
>surge of strength from my legs straight to my chest as i finally feel lower body activation during bench press for the first time

who the fuck started the arch back psyop? this is a fucking war crime. is some older fitness guy out there intentionally training the new generation to arch their backs like whores for his pleasure? STAY FLAT ON THE BENCH BROS ITS BETTER

arch back is a psyop to make you gay because that's how women are supposed to look so it makes you look like a woman so gay men will hit on you so you over time think that gay men want to fuck you and because women are fucking bit he's and don't fuck then you think that gay men are your only option so then when you want to fuck one but then because you always arch your back then out look like a gay bottom and not a too so then instead of you fucking the tranny you end up sucking his dick and he cums in your mouth and it's barely no protein so that's a psyop too and fuck them faggots don't arch your back

Athletes are taught to minimize or outright avoid the arch because they need to train for genuine power through an ROM that's a bit closer to what will happen during a match (some teams go even further and skip flat bench outright in favor of dips and incline).
Thats said, arching is just a trick meant to decrease ROM so you can eek out a higher number to place higher in competitions on a technicality. But it's just that, a trick, and nobody outside of YT Influencers and powershitters actually encourage doing the trick 24/7.
Same thing with sumo squats.
