Reverse KB Floor Press

"Using a reverse grip shifts the emphasis to the upper pecs, mainly the clavicular head. Your shoulders and triceps continue to assist — although the triceps work harder as compared to a standard press — while the biceps again stabilize your movements. The effect is similar to performing the exercise on an incline bench. Using a reverse grip and spreading your hands a few inches wider than shoulder-width apart increases the intensity on your upper pecs by about 27 percent, relative to the standard bench press, according to Muscle & Fitness”. - Chron.Com


KB Batwing Gorilla Rows:

Checklist:

Take a shoulder to slightly wider than shoulder stance.

  • HINGE into the hips
  • Maintain a small low back arch and get the chest up
  • Shoulders DOWN, into the back pockets
  • Chin/ head in neutral
  • Row BOTH kettlebells into the hips and HOLD them at the ribcage for maximum scapular packing.
  • Row ONE bell at a time, keeping the other shoulder PACKED (lat tight) the whole time.
  • No rotation through the shoulders or torso, stay flat.
