Is it important to breathe right when doing your workout?
If it is, are there any specific breathing techniques required for the following: -Bench press, Squats, bicep curl, dips, bent over rows, lat pulldown, situps and pushups?
Thanks in advance for helping me out!

If you are a beginner you shouldn't bother with this imo your body will do it naturally.
I like to breath in during the negative movement and out during the positive movement.
Except for exercises like squat and deadlifts I use valsalva maneuver breathing technique(holding breath during the whole exercise and breath between reps) to provide core support and help protecting my back.
I also use valsalva maneuver to gain mechanical advantage.
