REverse Grip Bench Press..

[bigboomer]

Hmm... never tried it for upper chest however I like reverse grips for the triceps

Yeah I have a feeling it's all in the difference of hand with, and where the barbell is brought down to..I bring the barbell down below my lower chest by a few inches with a wide grip.The study shows a 30 percent increase in upper chest activity compared to incline press. That's gotta to say something!To each there own...

Well I will say if it works for you and you feel safe with it then it's all good. I didnt mean to come across so negative and as for the triceps note that was from what I read about it but yeah it makes sense it depends on the grip, wide vs narrow.

I have just never seen any BIG guys doing it but then again I dont have any big guys at my gym...

Thanks for your input and keep us updated on if you think it is making a difference. I may be talked into giving it a try.

It's cool bro.I tried them and had to talk this exercise up because I felt them so good..but we all use different exercises for different bodyparts. Some work for some and may not work for others.appreciate your input
