    Wide Grip Partial Deadlifts

    Wide Grip Partial Deadlifts Deadlifts are a great movement which involve most of the body. They are especially beneficial when done for moderate reps. When done with low reps, they can be a body wrecker, especially when the lifter is undisciplined or tries to lift too close to the limit too...

    Close stance or wide stance for squats?

    So you've probably heard me say before that my deadlift is 257.5kg and squat is 165kg and I was trying to figure out how to boost my squat. Well my deadlift stance is narrow, however my squat stance is wide (the reason I changed to wide is that I was getting knee pain from narrow stance. I was...

    Flat bench, 30cm-32cm wide, options?

    The only option I've found so far is the gymdirect flat bench Commercial Flat Bench with wheels I need the width, I also need it to be rated to 300kg+ total weight. I can see myself getting to 110kg and benching 150kg+ in the next year, maybe doing more weight on lockouts. Anyone know of other...

    Very wide, flat bench - recommendations?

    As title suggests I'm after recommendations. So far considering the MM gymdirect flat commercial that has a 30cm back rest. 30cm would be the minimum I'd consider. Trained at Brisbane PTC (great place, btw) recently and they had a bench which was wider, perhaps 34cm? Not quite sure on...

    Bench press grip - how wide?

    I've always used a grip width on the BP that is a thumb's width away from the smooth part of the bar. I thought that's a normal grip, and a close grip is right up the edge of the smooth, but I've seen references to my grip being a close grip. Obviously I've seen many people with much wider...
