Resources mentioned in the episode:
- Higher levels of both pec and triceps in narrow (diamond) compared to wide pushups here and here
- In fact, every muscle is activated more in narrow hands here
- Absolute changes in muscle activation in pushups with different hand placement is marginal here

- But grip width does not affect how many reps you can do here or here
