With the board press and floor pressing I've been doing I decided it was time to work the lower end of my bench press today. My choice movement for this today is deficit bench. For these, I use a barbell with about a 1.5" camber in it. I don't feel it is necessary to use a large deficit for these to get a good amount from them and using a larger amount of deficit also increases the risk of strains on the pecs and shoulders.
