I'm guess you are referring to a lineman's "punch" but that is not a bench press movement....if the DL is on an OL's body like a bench press, its over anyway.
Show me an offensive line technique that is reliant on the pectoral muscles and I will show you an unemployed coach.
Various Clean movements are the explosive measure of choice now...
