Feet flat or on toes--benching

[donsj]

Which way works best for you and why do you think so. I got alltime pr touching the balls of my feet and pushing down towards my heel but not touching the heel but I can't seem to do that anymore. I feel more stable with feet flat now. The pics of the big guys and gals seem to be mixed. Some on toes some flat. Of course some feds make you go flat.

i like on the balls of my feet. it helps me keep my arch. i can hug the bench with my legs which keeps me stable. with my feet flat my hips come up with leg drive, when on the balls of my feet, i tuck my feet back so far, that even with leg drive my hips dont come up illegally.
