Why are my elbows dipping below the bench during bench press?

[JoshLiftss]

When I bench press, my elbows go much lower than the bench. Why is that and what can I do to fix it?

It's normal, don't worry about it.

Yeah. If you're bringing the bar all the way down to your chest, I don't see how your elbows cannot dip below the bench

As others have said, it's normal. Depends on a lot but start with arm length.

If you're concerned you can always start taking a wider grip on the bar.

You’d be doing the equivalent of a floor press if your elbows stopped at bench level.
