Was not even going in to max out today, but I was feeling it during the warm ups so I decided to pull this out of my ass.

good shit bro. your grip is close as hell lol.

 

[miked8c]

Wow I didn't realize how close it was until I watched this.. Maybe I should widen it.

Fantastic work mike! Your grip is close...but not that close. I actually find I am stronger with that grip vs a super wide one.

 

[twenty47]

yeah im not saying he should be a lot wider but his arms are bowed in some. seems like it would put alot more stress on the triceps.

Nothing wrong with your grip width if it feels good to you.

Konstantinov an INSANELY strong russian powerlifter benches with damn near the same grip width and he's like 6'2" or taller easily and 275-285lbs.

IT wouldn't hurt to see if going wider a finger width amount at a time increases your benching power though. If not keep using the same grip. If it isn't stopping you benching 315 I don't think it would stop you from benching 400 in the future.

your buddy scratching his nuts really adds to the drama, I must say.
