    I don't get it

    Just for reference, a couple people in the last thread mentioned trainers who encouraged them to use a false grip on bench presses, wherein your thumb does not wrap around the bar, but instead presses against it on the same side as your fingers

    she didn't encourage me to do that, but because I ride my bike everywhere I have a lot of strain on that part of my hand, so she did show me that grip

    it is really hard to do and I rejected it in favor of the regular kind

    I find it very odd you would just post that on here WaM. Maybe you should just PM that info.
    I've done it plenty of times before

    if it offends you I'll remove it

    Doesn't offend me, I just am thinking you're gonna get weird calls/texts from people.

    I'm not that confident in my grip that I'm willing to do that just yet. My friend does the "monkey grip" but he's been lifting for the better part of a decade and he has plenty of experience.

    if you keep your wrists where they're supposed to be, that grip is super hard for people with girly little hands

    The false grip is one of the dumbest things people can do in the gym, yet seems that a couple people just took what Ledneh said as a suggestion.

    This is why you do not do the false grip

    It should be an obligatory video whenever someone says something positive about the false grip. Other videos showing the same thing happening are not hard to find.

    That's an excellent way to have your windpipe crushed or I suppose if you were really lucky, get decapitated.
