Bench Press Grips - Wide vs Narrow

[ThaDjLayzee]

LOLOL you guys are sooo fucking gay its funny.

[trikytrik696969]

ok kevin down you go *unzips pants*

[EnvelopedInDarkness]

can ya hold that kevin?

[Sameronei]

this video is very bad. wide grip is when you have got 90 degrees and the bar touches your chest. it is a very importand exercise to make the chest big and strong too. iner chest presses aren´t that effecient

[Spec0pleader]

whats he saying? no difference between wide and narrow?

[mynameistilmandood]

i would hope he could hold a 45lb bar...

[mikeypsvcc]

stop touching my hands faggot.

[ninjaskills24]

45 lbs and he's asking him can he hold it!!!!wtf

[eyesack9]

... can you hold that? *nods* *bar tilts the second he lets go*... fml

[evilmonkey1192]

I bench with a close grip. so if i started to bench with a wider grip, would i be able to bench more? Ive heard wide grip is easier than close grip.

[eyesack9]

@evilmonkey1192 lol no, narrow grip is easier to pump up higher weights. wide is harder.

try doing push ups with your hands closer to you. then do a wider push up. you'll know what i'm talking about

[whoodiestyle]

@eyesack9 wide grip push up is easy close is not at all

[slim240293]

@eyesack9 Weights don't matter... What really matters is to work all your muscle groups properly. :)

[hardrock4eva]

@eyesack9 You don't know what you're talking about...

[TheTruthHurtsYup]

In my benching I really try to avoid touching my chest with the bar. It really puts a lot of strain on your shoulders. cause your pecs stop working when you get too low.

[trixdude]

@TheTruthHurtsYup Thats poor technique then and knowhere near as beneficial as going all the way down... To put simply touching the chest causes 100% muscle stimulation and twice as much growth as not touching the chest + benching half reps may be more likely to cause injury due to POOR technique...

[IrishRhavin]

@trixdude Sorry to jump in on a year old comment, but surely as ur chest grows, touchin the chest becomes less of a distance, so how does that extra few degrees which places alot of strain on the shoulders benifit?

[imtheking1001]

i like kevin :)

[jravens13]

wide grips fuck your shoulders up...not recomended

[COOPZILON]

@jravens13 not if you warm up the rotator cuff in your shoulders and have you arms 90 degrees from your torso. :)

[tlast2O12dude]

so the normal wrip is when you get 90 degrees angle on the elbows at middle position?...

[MrFREETHESLAVES]

NO this guys an idiot. normal is 90 at chest toucch. this guy seems like he doesnt touch.

he also seems gay and likes touching kevins hands.

[kid1111111]

i have a question, my right pec to me looks wider then my left what grip should i use to fix this? it also seems like its only the bottom half of my left pec thats not as wide. any thoughts?

[mohammad112388]

When I started working with close grip bench, I noticed alot more mass being built on the inner part of my pectorals. I know they say it one muscle and you can't target a part...but I completely disagree. When you work with a closer grip...you can contract the inside of the chest more intensely, which can't be done at a wide grip (especially if you have long arms like me). So other trainers are right.

[vinicent13]

haha can you hold that? i would hope he could hold a 45lb bar.

[jordanbalboa1]

@vinicent13

look at his arms though lol

[arkangelio]

I like this presentation. Good stuff.

[suckmypokecock]

lol cleavage

[SSSDiaz7]

yeah.. this is the fastest way to fu** your shoulders up, wide grip is always saffer in the short and long run, and your chest expands more evenly with wide grip, and by the way, close grip is for puss**ies that don't have any chest muscle so they need to make up for it by hitting their triceps, but thats what extensions and dips are for.

[suckmypokecock]

Bear in mind that you're pushing the bar a shorter distance the wider your grip is.

[erik50000]

true

[suckmypokecock]

Who the fuck gave me thumbs down

[Hagen20013]

...or they could be doing close grip to hit their triceps? This is one of the more retarded things I've read on Youtube today and that says something.

[tylerjamesr]

close grip is harder, and why is someone a pussy for wanting to work their triceps.

[herat00]

nice

[jaywallace23]

this is stupid...

[ThaRiflekid]

god atleast someone gets it that you can't target "inner chest", very nice vid btw
