Q: What's the optimal grip width to use to target the triceps on the close-grip bench press? A: The traditional bench press usually refers to a flat-bench press performed with a grip that's shoulder-width or wider. The primary muscular emphasis is on the chest. The close-grip bench press, on the other hand, typically refers to any grip that's narrower than shoulder width, which greatly increases the emphasis on the triceps.
The only other thing that will probably control where you put your hands on the bar is how comfortable the bar feels in your hands/wrists while doing the movement. When I go real close-grip I feel it in my wrists before I feel it in my tri's so I slightly widen my grip until the wrists are ok and the tri's are burning. What others are using for a grip: MY CLOSE VARIES FROM WEEK TO WEEK AND HOW MUCH WEIGHT IM USING. I START FROM A THUMBS DISTANCE FROM THE SMOOTH PART OF THE BAR AND GO AS FAR AS HAVING MY PINKY ON THE RING. Sit on the bench facing the bar.
