I'll never understand the whole 'arch your back for 'strength'' thing in lifting. "Instead of supporting these joints in a neutrally-articulated position, I ask them to bear weight in near hyper-flexion. Yes." With the belt people make it safe-ish, but I'm skeptical as hell

An arch is impossible to avoid with the heaviest strict press. That’s why it was dropped from Olympic competition decades ago. On the bench press, the use of a proper arch in the center of the back — correct powerlifting form — ensures the load is pressed safely by the lats

Interesting. I presume though that a moderate arch on the bench is sufficient? Also I feel like I see fairly massive arching often in the gym esp. w folks trying for big weight?

a moderate arch is the best for regular training. a massive arch is necessary for the best possible competitive bench along with an extremely wide grip to limit range of motion (however, a more normal-width grip and a more moderate arch are best for training)
