I workout alone a lot. I tried the reverse grip tricep bench press, and had some trouble handling the bar off the lift. Any solutions to this? How do you do this when you lift? Thanks for the read.

do it in the power rack as a reverse-grip floor pressing movement or start the motion at the bottom (i.e., out of the hole)....unless you're using a hella light weight, most arn't going to be able to unrack it from the top (i know i can't on a regular flat r-g c-g bp, but on a floor r-g c-g bp i can easily)

Yeah, it takes some getting used to. I personally hate it myself.

I usualy kick the weight up when I'm standing up, and then by the time I'm laying on the bench I'm already got the bar in position. I usualy need some help to get the weight of me after the set though...

No rack for me. If I had access to one I'd be using it for back squats wouldn't I? That's the only thing keeping me from doing them.
