Narrow Grip Bench Press

Muscles Targeted:

  • Targets the triceps, chest, and shoulders

  • Primary focus is the triceps

Form:

  • Keep elbows tucked in and try to load on to lats.

  • Focus more on the top of the movement rather than depth.

  • Don’t let elbows past your sides since focus is on the lock out.

  • Finishing with the barbell over the shoulder level is great for an extra squeeze.

Rep Ranges:

  • Reps can be performed in any rep range (3+)

  • This exercise has the potential for heavy loads, great for strengthening the lockout on a bench press.
