That's a keeper.
It goes along with the fact that there is no "bodybuilding bench press form" that is somehow completely different. A bench press is a bench press. You certainly don't need to use leg drive if you don't want, and you certainly don't need a superhuman arch, but you do need proper setup and execution. Flat bench, arms flared benching is not acceptable. Love your shoulders. They love you.

I did flat back benching for nearly 20 years and I pay the price now.

Well unfortunately the industry spent decades not talking much about form. I recall all my old Weider magazines...nice workouts, but I don't ever recall being told how to bench and squat properly. Maybe things have changed.
All the pictures were of flat back, arms flared benching.
