Just a little advice not sure if you do this but in powerlifting we arch are back enough to wear you squeeze your lats and lay on them on the bench.
Also when you grip the bar act like you are trying to bend the bar towards your chest. Its kind of a wrist thing bend with wgole hand through the pinkie fingers. Those 2 adjustments take alot of pressure off the shoulders and i use alot of lats to push the bench. You still get the chest activated if you are purely doing bench for chest development imo there are better tgings than flat bench.
Cool man thanks, i always warm up my back before benching, then i try to pinch my shoulder blades together and slight arch in the back, didnt know about that grip trick I'll try that! I do chest twice/week. One day i do flat bench/incline dumbell press/ cables/hammerstrength. The other i do incline bench/flat dumbell press/pec dec/cables and champagnes. Switch the acessories around a lil bit here and there bit thats the jist
