What Other Coaches and Powerlifters Think of the Bench Press Troubleshooter

"Straightforward and to the point.

An incredibly handy tool that any powerlifter doing their own programming - or looking to do their own programming - will benefit from."

Steve Pritula, Powerlifter

“This is a great guide for a technical lift, like the bench press. Describing not only the most common weak points, but also addressing the solutions will add value for many powerlifters.

I especially like that it addresses all the major weak points, because it's most likely that if you're doing it right, your weak point will change over time. Matthew harnesses his years of experience as a coach to provide easy to follow advice.

I also appreciate that the guide doesn't make use of specialty equipment that might not be available at every gym. Highly recommend... why spend your time trying new things with no direction, when you can follow advice from an experienced coach.

Winter Dubbin, Powerlifter+Coach
