good luck getting a bench press higher than 180lbs with that form. btw, most powerlifters i've talked to agree that a wider grip puts less strain on the rotator cuff.
it's refreshing to see a cross-fitter who doesn't have a personal grudge against the "slow lifts" (bench, dead, squat). i've been at cross-fit gyms where these are considered useless "ego" lifts. nevermind that powerlifting is in itself a very rewarding and competitive sport in and of itself just like olympic lifting is. i think crossfit gyms easily fall into the trap that their concept of fitness is supreme, ignoring various aims of fitness ie (endurance sports, power sports, ect.)
@justinkennethmail I don't know which CrossFit boxes you've been to, but I'm a CF trainer and squat and deadlift are 2 of the foundational movements. They are fundamental lifts that are done on a regular basis. Bench is still done, just not often, as pushups usually take their place (both have merits).
is this a guy or girl?

Crossfit does do a lot of deadlift and squats. Bench is the one out of the three that they don't normally do.

Thank you for putting out standards for clean reps. Could you do more videos like this?
