📚Grip Width can affect a number of things during a bench press, such as muscle activity, load and sticking point of the movement.

If you aren't concerned about maximal bench press strength then you should select a grip width that provides the most comfort on both your shoulders, elbows and wrists!

Wider grip:
🔘Less Triceps
🔘May increase load lifted (is likely a 'sweet spot' for most people)
🔘Causes greater abduction at the shoulder
🔘Sticking point is likely to be lower in the movement
🔘A possible increase in pectoral activity
🔘Shorter ROM
🔘More shoulder stress

Narrower Grip:
🔘More Triceps
🔘Lower load than regular Bench Press
🔘Causes a more acute angle of abduction at the shoulder
🔘Sticking point likely to be higher in the movement
🔘 Longer ROM
🔘More elbow stress

Coach squatting 245kg at a bodyweight of 90kg in last years English powerlifting championships, which was 22.5kg over the current English squat record. This squat helped him claim 1st place in the 93kg U23 junior class, despite only being 19. 🔶🔶🔶🔶

Awesome work from client finishing up her last squat session of her first block with a set of 10 on 75kg, big things to come from hazel in the next few weeks!👊

Here's what she had to say 👉

"Week 4 of my powerlifting programme with KJperformance and my set today consists of an AMRAP of squats on 75kg. I managed 10 which I'm incredibly happy with. I have 3 and a half years of weight training experience at a lower weight but higher volume, I'd developed good strength but wanted to make bigger progress and direct it towards a sport, Will James has inspired me towards powerlifting. He's set me a great programme so far and has helped me break a monotonous training routine, I feel stronger in areas that always seemed to have slow improvement, my body also looks in better condition. I would definitely recommend a training programme from KJ performance if you're looking to want to up your training."
