CHEST

Reverse Grip Bench Press

IntermediateBarbell

The reverse grip bench press flips your hands to an underhand hold, which shifts the load toward the upper chest and hits the triceps harder than a standard press. This altered angle makes it a useful variation for building upper chest and arm strength, though it calls for careful attention to form.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Lie flat on a bench and grip the barbell just outside shoulder width with an underhand grip, palms toward your head.

  2. 2

    Unrack the bar and hold it steady over your chest.

  3. 3

    Lower the bar to your lower chest, keeping your elbows about 45 degrees from your torso.

  4. 4

    Press the bar back up under control to the starting position.

  5. 5

    Repeat for your reps, keeping the wrists stable throughout.
