A Wrist-Friendly Version of the Reverse Bench Press

September 15, 2013 | John Paul Catanzaro

The reverse bench press is not mentioned often and I must admit, I don’t prescribe it too frequently either, but it can be a great triceps exercise. The big knock against it: comfort! It’s not a “wrist-friendly” movement, especially under a heavy load. But there’s a way to transform this into a winner, it’s called the EZ-bar. Use it!
