A virtual model of the bench press exercise
Journal of Biomechanics, 2009The objective of this study was to design and validate a three degrees of freedom model in the sagittal plane for the bench press exercise. The mechanical model was based on rigid segments connected by revolute and prismatic pairs, which enabled a kinematic approach and global force estimation.

The “sticking period” in a maximum bench press
Journal of Sports Sciences, 2010The purpose of this study was to examine muscle activity and three-dimensional kinematics in the ascending phase of a successful one-repetition maximum attempt in bench press for 12 recreational weight-training athletes, with special attention to the sticking period.

Effects of Different Vibration Exercises on Bench Press
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2011This study was undertaken to analyze the effects of different vibration recovery strategies via feet or hands on the number of repetitions performed and on mean velocity, peak velocity and blood lactate concentration during consecutive bench-press sets.

Influence of bench angle on upper extremity muscular activation during bench press exercise
European Journal of Sport Science, 2015AbstractThis study compared the muscular activation of the pectoralis major, anterior deltoid and triceps brachii during a free‐weight barbell bench press performed at 0°, 30°, 45° and –15° bench angles. Fourteen healthy resistance trained males (age 21.4 ± 0.4 years) participated in this study.

Relationship of Pectoralis Major Muscle Size With Bench Press and Bench Throw Performances
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2014This study examined the relationship of muscle size indices of the pectoralis major muscle with bench press and bench throw performances in 18 male collegiate athletes. The maximal cross-sectional area (MCSAMAx) and volume (MV) of the pectoralis major muscle were determined by magnetic resonance imaging.

ENERGY EXPENDITURE DURING BENCH PRESS AND SQUAT EXERCISES
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2007Despite the popularity of resistance training (RT), an accurate method for quantifying its metabolic cost has yet to be developed. We applied indirect calorimetry during bench press (BP) and parallel squat (PS) exercises for 5 consecutive minutes at several steady state intensities for 23 (BP) and 20 (PS) previously trained men. Tests were conducted in

A Comparison of Force Curve Profiles Between the Bench Press and Ballistic Bench Throws
Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2008The purpose of this study was to compare the peak force and force curve characteristics during a traditional bench press (BP) and a ballistic bench throw (BT). Eight (age = 21.0 +/- 2.3 years, height = 182.3 +/- 7.4 cm, body mass = 85.9 +/- 5.5 kg) semi-professional rugby league players with resistance and power training experience performed both BP ...

Fatigue Effects on Bar Kinematics During the Bench Press
The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2007The bench press is one of the most popular weight training exercises. Although most training regimens incorporate multiple repetition sets, there are few data describing how the kinematics of a lift change during a set to failure. To examine these changes, recreational lifters (10 men and 8 women) were recruited.

Rib fracture due to bench pressing.
Journal of manipulative and physiological therapeutics, 1990Rib fractures are commonly associated with blunt trauma, but there are instances where this is not the case. In this case a patient fractured the second rib during a "bench press" weight lifting maneuver. The possible etiology is proposed, and the incidence, causes, diagnosis, complications, and treatment of rib fractures are discussed.
