Hey /fit/, what are your thoughts on the reverse grip bench

The only barbell variation I really feel in my upper chest desu. I feel like one of those bars with a diagonal grip would be better on the wrists

Looks an awful lot like dicline bench. Also can't you just keep overhand and just change elbow position to get the same effect?

Looks both needlessly dangerous and like something that could be done safer/more efficiently with a different excercise, incline/decline like everyone else is saying.

The fact that the dude in the picture is doing it in a smith machine speaks for itself.

No this. Think it's called a Swiss bar

Better with dumbbells. Good finisher, I like 4x15 at the end of my chest workout.

Good read, read it before. I believe he states he can bench more reverse than he can normally due to increased chest activation. The only issue is safety with this being worse than thumbless grip.

Try it on an incline bench with 1/2 your max, it's pretty good.
