[QUOTE="BigDrez, post: 1882312, member: 567991"] Somewhat true...while it does not have a DIRECT effect on your bench press in general it certainly does help...When you squat you release your testosterone through the rest of your body which will naturally give you a better edge when lifting...it will cause you to develop more overall strength...and bench press being a compound exercise can potentially increase...but since it is a different muscle group all together if you squat all the time and only bench once in a while...you won't see a dramatic increase in your strength gains (paritculary bench pressing) just because you squat...however like I said they release your testosterone...and deadlifts are another good one to help develop overall strength...but if you're looking to increase your bench press strength start with your chest obviously....but work your stabilizer muscles as well...which in the case of the bench press will be your front deltoids (shoulders) and triceps....try some military presses and close grip bench presses and some skullcrushers....you're kind of on the right track with that statement...but it's like with any group that works together...when you work you're back you indirectly work your biceps and forearms....when you work your chest...you indirectly work your shoulders and triceps...which is why many people use the "push, Pull" routine for lifting....something like... Mon: Chest Shoulders Triceps Tues: Back Biceps Forearms Weds: Legs Thurs: Chest Shoulders Triceps Fri: Back Biceps Forearms while incorporating whatever cardio and ab work outs you might want to...that is just an example...I personally only work out one muscle group a day....you won't fully develop a muscle unless you hit it from every angle so my routine as of now is Mon:Chest Tues:Back Weds: Legs Thurs: Shoulders Fri: Biceps, Triceps and Forearms remember to switch your routine every 10-12 weeks too...taking 5-7 days off in between switches...if you keep your body guessing it will continue to grow...if it gets used to your routine you will hit a plateau [/QUOTE]
