New Users
New users must register. Please follow the process outlined below:

1: Email address and password

Enter your email address. (If you received an email message from the journal, please use the email address to which that correspondence was sent. Once your registration is complete, you can then change your email address if necessary.)

Next, create a password and choose a hint question. Please note: if you forget your password, you will need to correctly answer your hint question in order to generate a new password as the password is encrypted for added security. No one else has access to it, not even Bench>Press staff.

2: Verification

Once you complete the first step the system will email you a message containing a link to this website. This is a unique link generated just for you. Please click on this link, in order to verify that the email address you entered does indeed belong to you. This helps to ensure that your email address is not being used fraudulently. Note: you may need to cut and paste the link from your email program into your web browser, if your email program does not let you follow web links contained inside email messages.

For more information regarding why we ask you to do this, please visit our frequently asked questions page.

3: Basic profile

Once you have verified your email address you will be asked to provide a basic profile consisting of your contact information and expertise terms. This information allows us to communicate with you properly. Note: although you may use the same email address and password to access any journal using the Bench>Press system, you must create an individual profile with each journal.
