Close-Grip Bench Press Guide | 3 Mistakes to AVOID

Close-Grip Bench Press Mistakes and How to Avoid Them The close-grip bench press is a fantastic bench press variation for strengthening pressing mechanics and overloading the triceps. For most lifters, the close-grip bench press seems easy to perform, after all, you just bring your hands in closer...right? Yes, but there's a bit more to it than that! There are a few mechanical differences that are worth noting and paying attention to with the close-grip bench press. In this video, we cover three common close-grip bench press mistakes and how-to properly perform this bench press variation. 3 COMMON CLOSE-GRIP BENCH PRESS MISTAKES 1. Gripping too Close One of the most common close-grip bench press mistakes is gripping the bar too closely. Generally, beginners will make the mistake of gripping the bar with their hands touching or way too close. This can be problematic for a couple reasons. First, it can cause discomfort on the lateral side of the wrist due to the loaded position at the bottom of the press with the sharp/harsh wrist angle. Second, it's not an efficient way to press, which is taking away the benefits of the close-grip bench press in the first place! 2. Bar Path and Chest Touch Point For most lifters, especially long-armed lifters, the close-grip bench press's bar path and touch point on the chest will be slightly different than the tradition bench press. If you find that it's uncomfortable to perform the close-grip bench press with your normal bar path and touch point, then try bringing the bar 1-2 inches lower. Generally, this will feel a bit more natural and allow you to stack the wrists over the elbows. 3. Tucking the Elbows Too Much Elbow tuck is a hot topic with the bench press, and at times, lifters tuck the elbows a bit too much in the close-grip bench press (usually a result of over-compensation). More than likely the elbows will be slightly more tucked for this movement compared the traditional bench press, however, if they're too close, then you can into the problem of potentially pulling the shoulders into internal rotation. This internal rotation can cause general shoulder discomfort, so be mindful of elbow tuck if you experience any general discomfort during your next close-grip bench press day! -------- Thanks for checking out BarBend, make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel:    / @barbend   Also, check out some of our most popular videos: Best Cross Training Shoes:    • Best Cross Training Shoes (Top Picks!!!)   Best Pre Workout Supplements:    • 8 Best Pre Workouts for Fat Loss, Car...   Best Meal Replacements:    • Best Meal Replacement Shakes (UPDATED...   Pull-Ups vs Chin-Ups:    • CHIN UPS vs. PULL UPS — The Differenc...
