Bench press hand position?
Right, I stalled on my bench press so I thought I'd take it down some weight. It seemed as if one arm was stronger than the other because it was pushing it up before the other one was and kind of wobbled. I thought this was unusual for a reset and thought perhaps it's my hand positioning". Now I don't know where I got this idea from, but I thought that your hands were supposed to go here:

The reason I probably thought this is because Rippetoe advises against a wider grip. I'm guessing that's wrong because the bar can't indicate the same hand position for everyone because we're all different. Is there a specific way in where I should determine where my hands go or is there another reason why I struggled?
My range of motion was a bit shtty too, should it pretty much be touching my chest? Because it was only getting to about here:

So is it a problem with my hand positioning?
Thanks
