Currently have been working out for about a year and I am looking for a 4-8 week program that is ONLY bench press focused. I was wondering if you guys know of one like 6 week Kizen bench press program.

Go on Reddit and search deathbench by DisBrow. Or do sheiko. Why only bench?

Okay thanks. Ill be honest, I remember watching a video by Alex from alpha destiny always and he said something like if you want to get good at benchpress you gotta focus on benching. He said you don't wanna juggle around with too many if your trying to get good at one of them

I get that, but at the same time, are you squat and dead where you want them to be to the point that you don't feel you need to focus on them? Something like sheiko 37, which has a big emphasis on bench might be perfect for you.

personally, my lower body is naturally bigger and stronger then most people I workout with (my age), so I'm trying to slow down on my lower portion of my body so my upper body can catch up. I'll check out the sheiko 37.

Forget looking for a sheiko program unless you go to sheiko himself as the ones online will have been designed for a specific person and their circumstances and then "leaked" online.

If you are looking for a higher PR single, then my vote would go to the Russian Percent Program for the BP.
It starts and looks pretty easy, but don't be fooled, once you get to 6 sets of 5 reps and then 6x6 for the volume phase, then tapers to higher weight and low reps for strength, it gets tough.
W/O is at bottom of page. Best advice is to start quite modest with your current max. It is not unheard of to get 107% maybe even 110% gain.

The 70%x2 and 75%x2 are generally W/U's, but I would not skip them.

If this Alex guy is telling you to stop doing anything BUT benching - he has no idea what he is talking about. It is really as simple as that.

I would strongly urge you not to lose focus on the rest of your body. I would say to make chest your first excersizes on workout days, prioritize it. Maybe hit chest twice a week and everything else once a week. You should just keep it simple, hit heavy compounds: squats, legs press, rows, pull ups, deadlifts etc.
