Tried it because my shoulders were hurting when doing regular closegrip. Not bad, but i believe it overstresses the elbows a bit.

They are great for strengthening your triceps.

We did them all the time when i trained for powerlifting.

Helps your bench.

Not really itīs a sort of mish mash between a press & skull crusher.
