http://AskTheTrainer.com/best-arms-exercise.html Personal Trainer Michael Behnken, MS, NASM-CPT-PES, CSCS The reverse grip bench is best used as a 1st triceps exercise. This is because it is a multi-joint exercise in which the triceps can bear the heaviest load. To perform properly you need to feel the triceps working on the concentric (upwards) and eccentric (downwards) parts of the exercise. San Francisco Personal Training http://fitSF.com
