Bench Press rule change will be good

In Response To: Another Bench Press rule change? (Ryan Edwards)

The rule change will make the benchpress what it is supposed to be, a benchpress. Not an Arch press, Not a Belly press. This will let the judges CLEARLY see the IPF's Zyphoid process,sternum ,whatever you want to call it.This will make the lifters go back to Reasonable arches,and flat back benching.
I hope the rule passes, I'd like to see what happens to the bench numbers of those who have the outrageous arch.
Before you go and try to slam me saying I'm saying this because I can't bench or whatever... NOT THE CASE!Check the stats
