11. Close-Grip Bench Press
What it works: triceps
How to do it: Lie on a flat bench, grasping a barbell with your hands spaced closer than shoulder-width apart (but not so close that your hands are touching). Unrack the bar and hold it over your chest. Lower the bar until it just reaches the middle of your chest—keep your elbows tucked to engage your triceps. Pause, then push the bar back up.
