Using leg extension machine as an example - exhale as you lift up the weights and inhale as you go down. Another example - bench press, inhale when you lift the weight up and exhale when you lower down the weight to your chest. I shall write more about the correct breathing technique in near future. i hope you meant, INHALE during the PRESSING phase of the BENCH PRESS is THE WRONG WAY TO DO IT. maybe i'm reading your article wrong (the way you put your words kinda got me confoooosed :) anyway, always INHALE when lowering the weight to your chest, and exhale to press it back up.
