Overview

The Smith closegrip bench press is an exercise that targets the triceps. It is performed by lying on a bench with your feet flat on the floor and your knees slightly bent. You then grasp the bar with an underhand grip, just wider than shoulder-width apart. Keeping your elbows close to your sides, press the bar up until your arms are fully extended. Slowly lower the bar back to the starting position and repeat.
