That isn't true. Yes, the bench is often overused and emphasized, but that doesn't make the exercise terrible. It can be useful when applied properly. A terrible exercise? That isn’t true.

Mike Brown wrote "The Strength of Samson" "Diagnostic Bodybuilding" and a couple more books. He has been in bodybuilding and fitness for about 35 years or so. From what i know of him, he is a bible scholar that applies God's hints on training and life from his studies. I enjoy reading older publications about strength feats from time to time and thought you mike enjoy knowing this guy is legit. You can read more of him here. Keep up the good work Bro.
