Around 2 years ago I got a story question on if you should follow the bar with your eyes while benching. And it kind of hit me that I had never thought about that before, and I immediately went down to my home gym to see what I did personally. It became immediately apparent that 1.) I had never once accounted for this variable and 2.) it can be a very important variable, as the decision to follow or not follow the bar can have a notable impact on your head position. In my latest YouTube video, I do a short and simple rundown of this topic and what you need to account for. I cover the benefits of following the bar with your eyes, but also the detriment of doing so if you have a lower arch and longer range of motion. To some, like myself 2 years ago, this may be something you've never really thought about before and could have an immediate impact on your bench technique.
