| The shirt press and the bench press are two entirely different lifts and involve different muscles and a different ROM. To call them the same lift is just flat out dishonest. So, let's take a vote and seltte this worn out futile arguement once and for all! I'll go first. |

| Heavy contradiction in this thread. The thread title says "BP", yet in the post you say that they are different lifts. Quit being a douche about it. Give it up, meng. |

| Wouldn't raw benchers run the risk of getting hurt more? Especially once you're working with 600+lbs. I don't think anyone wants that. It would be a short raw benching career. Maybe that's why working with a shirt not only makes it more fun (progress a lot faster) but maybe limits the injury risk? I'm just guessing here. I know guys do get hurt benching with a shirt too. |

| If you can't lift the weight without getting hurt, then you need to lower the weight. It's that simple. |
