I have seen a couple of guys at the gym benching with what looks like a 2 inch foam block on their chest. They bring the bar down to the block as opposed to all the way down to their chest. Is there any advantage or disadvantage to doing this? At the very least it appears to limit ones range of motion that couple of inches but maybe it prevents the threat of over extension. Any advice from someone that know what the hell I am talking about would be appreciated.
