Notice the title. I'm not saying this is THE way to increase your bench numbers. In fact it may not even work for you. But this is how, in a couple of years, I went from a 475 personal best to a documented 575 raw press and undocumented 585 in training. Take from it what works for you and ignore the rest.
I'm not doing this because I think I'm somebody like Mendy or CT, but only because DP Hank asked me to probably out of curiosity. So no ego involved here. Just relating what has worked for me out of respect for a brother of iron.
First there is no secret routine, although I do have a trick that works, but rsther it's a combination of things, everything from genetics to grip, supporting muscles to feet positioning.
This will probably be lengthy, and I apologize, but there is just not one simple answer to how I'm able to lift what I lift at my age. So if you're interested here goes. If not #&!= off. Just kidding.
