Aleks009436 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 The topic speaks for itself. BL with false grip would make it easier to combine BL with other skils, but are there any strenght benefits or other benefits? In general, should BL be trained with false grip?

Coach Sommer Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Before BL, I would be far more concerned with your shoulder extension strength and ROM.Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Sommer Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 What is also important to understand that it is completely unnecessary to EVER have a biceps tear from BL work. This is symptomatic of poorly designed training. Yours in Fitness,Coach Sommer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
