I have the same problem with my wrists and started to get pretty bad pain in my right wrist because of it. One thing I found helped me lock my wrists is trying to bend the ends of the bar towards your feet so the side of your thumbs are pushing into the bar. I can’t remember where I read it but its seemed to help me so far.

That bench is sweet. The uprights drop back after the bar is lifted off? Brilliant![/quote]
x2. I never seen a bench like that. At first I thought “dude your bench is broken!” but then it made perfect sense. Very awesome idea.[/quote]
I had to re-watch it, thinking “there’s NO WAY he’s lifting on a bench that wobbly!”
You didn’t touch your chest on every rep. CHEATER ;). Wrists still seem to bend back a little bit but I think the camera angle has to do with this too. Makes it harder to judge
You’re right. I was thinking about my wrists so much. I’m going to repeat this cycle on my 531 weights to get a better feel for it and definitely touch every rep. How is my arm angle? The first video I thought I had too much bend back toward my head. This one seems better, but I feel like my bar path is arced.
