Notes
-Energy and intensity was crazy tonight. Fuck it, I'm gonna get a fanny pack and start bodybuilding.
how'd the pinky on rings feel and what do you normally do?
ReplyDeleteIt actually felt surprisingly naturally. Usually my pointer is on the power rings, so this is a pretty substantial change imo.
ReplyDeleteObviously I didnt feel as strong as normal, but I felt confident enough to go semi-heavy and did a solid number of sets. I think two things made it the change pretty easy for me. First - dips. The dip bars at my gym are decently wide, so I'm kind of used to pressing with a little bit of a tuck. Second, I've done a fair amount of close grip incline over the past few months.
I think I'm going to continue with this grip. Its better for my shoulders long term, and it puts me in a better leveraged, more powerful position. I'm glad you suggested this... most of the best benchers utilize a triceps heavy bench.
It's all that time spent trolling Zyzz tribute threads...
