Ive been really feeling it in the top of the triceps and where the delt meets the pec is why I was asking, just trying to figure out an exercise that I dont already do that would help.

[ObsceneJester]

I've honestly haven't really felt it anywhere but my forearms and wrists

[dimmers]

chest and shoulders for me

[wscorpion]

lats, chest, shoulders, back, biceps, triceps, actually everything in the upperbody. I haven't really felt sore anywhere else then my hands, but you feel all those muscles working during the bend.

For me on a Balls to the Wall bend even my eyeballs and hair hurts.

I feel it in my biceps a lot at the time of bending but they are never sore afterwards.

I thoughtI was going to have a nose bleed whilst bending last night.

You shouldn't hit the steel against your nose while bending

No, but i can imagine due to the amount of pressure you are creating that a nosebleed and an increase of blood pressure isn't uncommon.

Who said strength training was good for your health?

Remeber to breathe when bending that steel.

just thought i'd mention it cus its different,

i used to get a lot of pain about 2 inches diagonally down from my armpits on my back. on both sides. I've been doing this for a a while now and its getting less and less each time i bend and recover. in fact i bent today and it doesn't hurt at all.

the shoulders i think are the most important part of the bend
