Your line play will be a directly affected by how well you work in the weight room.

Bench makes your chest and shoulders look better, and maybe your triceps but to say it makes your arms look better is ridiculous. Bench is very much used by anyone coming out of their stance and surely not a worthless lift.

No doubt. I used to have a pretty good bench but it didn't help my arms at all. Triceps a bit.

Triceps aren't part of your arm?

So benching over 4 makes you more efficient at committing penalties?

Yep! Especially since I think he had one holding penalty in four years of playing a position where he blocked 99% of the time.

Triceps aren't part of your arm?

Bench Press isn't a good lift when it comes to what lineman do. You aren't lying on the ground pushing weight up and down. A lot of blocking is in the lower body and hips. you need lifts that work on explosiveness both in legs and upper body.
