wide grip to make your chest wider.
medium =this is what everybody does
close grip= I do this more for my tricep=
Its more important if you focus more on Incline,Flat,and decline press at a medium grip..
Alot of people do chest and tricep .

Two points need to be made here:
Your friend is correct about the grips working varying parts of the chest. Its important to work on proper form to prevent injury, which may mean skipping a lot of heavy lifting until you're comfortable and confident with lifting.
The second point is: don't give out your IM address on a public message board.... this can open you up to unwanted e-mail, and even worse, identity theft. be careful some people aren't here to help others. Good luck with the lifting!

Unfortunately your friend is right.
