Episode Synopsis "Should Baseball Players Bench Press?"

In Episode 19 of the RBI Performance Podcast, we continue the Summer Strength Series by taking a look at the highly controversial bench press. Join us as we separate fact from fiction and explore why the bench is so contentious amongst the baseball population, the basic requirements we would like to see from an athlete before allowing them anywhere near a bench press, and discuss some shoulder-friendly alternatives that allow for you to continue chasing performance on the diamond, while still looking good with your shirt off. As always, please enjoy!
