Another Bench Press Grip Question

[Mike_Rojas]

I learned to bench with a "pinky on ring" grip because at the time my setup had uprights that wouldn't allow a wide grip. Because of this, my narrow grip is stronger than my wide grip.

Should I switch to a wide grip? I'm 6'0" with long arms.

If I should switch, do you have any tips on how to get my wide grip caught up?

I'd consider making the transition slowly, possibly one finger at a time over the course of several workouts.

try doing some illegal wide benches to bring up your chest strength. that should help a bit

Thanks for the tips

pinky on the rings is kind pretty much my standard raw grip. Alot of us MM trainers only go index fingers on the rings when shirt up or do certain board presses.
