Load up the Wheels and Get Your Benchpress Rolling!

Continued

 
Close Grip Benchpress – This lift is almost identical to the regular benchpress except that the grip is considerably narrower and the elbows are more turned in (squeezing the armpit area even tighter.) Close grip benching is awesome for building up the strength and mass of your triceps and it also gives your shoulders a break, as the closer your hands, the less pressure on your shoulder joints. (Seen spotting is strength and conditioning specialist, Nate Lawton.)
