why do some cats put there legs up on the end of the bench when doin flat bench. never occured to me why they do this |

They do it to take their legs out of the lift (i.e. the leg drive) and to isolate their pecs more. It is basically a useless practice to follow since the bench press is a compound movement and you should be concentrating on form and getting your weights up in an effort to stimulate growth in a number of muscles. It is definitely not something I would recommend most even try.

it's not going to hurt them if they have coins on the bar... but load up a few 45s and they'll probably lose their balance.

Bad idea. If you want to take your legs out of the lift do floor presses.
