Just to throw this in. A buddy of mine that just had shoulder surgery 2 months ago posted on FB he just did a 500 raw and a 805 raw bench with a Titan single ply.

I'm not sure what records he holds but I'm sure it's most of them. Harley Timbs is his name.

IDK if its a biceps tendon issue or a tater cuff thingy....but it hurts I do know that, during bench.
Anyways finally got around to getting a jump stretch band, the red one from 35-105 Lbs. Im using this doing a (modified) cross over. Modified staying inside the ROM that dosnt produce pain. Pull it in and hold, then the negative. 4x10 each arm. Will see how this does me.

Ouch! I've been down that path myself and can feel your pain! Another exercise that worked real well for me is putting my elbow shoulder high on something stationary and with a very light DB at first and rotate your arm horizontal to vertical concentrating on the rotator and not trying to power it up, only rotation. I do what you just mentioned and the exercise I just said EVERY TIME I walk into the gym, even on leg day. I have absolutely zero pain anymore. Good luck and get that sucker strong!
Much thanks FF. Will add that in as of Today!

When it comes to size, 6-8 reps work best for me, coincidentally that is also where i'm the strongest. There's many guys that are my size but have a higher flat pr, but they can't flat bench 315X8-9. For whatever reason, maybe how i've trained over the years, my max sucks, but i'm strong in the 6-8 rep range.

To me reps are way more in real life then a 1 time max anyway bro.
