Don’t put the bar straight across the middle of your palm.
Set it diagonally and low across the heel of your hand so the bar stacks over your wrist and forearm.
That reduces the moment arm at the wrist and keeps the load over your structure instead of letting the wrist fold backward.
A simple change to your grip can make a world of difference in your bench press.
