The following Bench Press errors should be avoided at all costs:
Pressing to Your Face.
Avoid lowering the bar to your face, and press in a straight line. Fix a point at the ceiling where you want the bar to go.
Elbows.
Elbow placement too high is bad for your shoulders, and too low is not optimal. Put your elbows between perpendicular to & parallel with your torso.
Shoulders Forward.
Don’t let your shoulders roll forward as it is a potential way to get shoulder injuries. Keep your chest up and shoulder-blades back and down
