Reverse Grip Bench Press

295 lb bench press

First day testing out this grip tape on the bench.

No slipping, and it really feels like my shirt and back are sticking to the bench. Any sort of movement while laying on, adjusting or getting off the bench sounds like velcro strips coming apart.

Had to put a small towel at the edge of the bench to protect the back of my head and neck.

I don't see any scratches or markings on my back (other than the bar mark from high and low bar squats) and my shirt appears to be intact. So far, so good.

Paused until work sets.

I was thinking that maybe I could get a knee wrapped squat PR today, but everything aches.
