How much can you DB incline?

[TampaSRT]

My gym has dumbbells up to 200 pounds, which is nice.

Me, I can lift the 2.5 pound teal dumbbells 8 times!! LIGHT WEIGHT!!!

And when you are done I hope you slam them down, look around and say, that's right come get some!

I do 85lbs x 6 at 30 degrees. My shoulder joints cant keep up with my chest and arms. I am gear free right now.

Same at mine, Metroflex Houston, though I am stuck at 105x8 as my max right now; damn shoulder is acting up some so my most recent is 85x10. I feel like a pussy when I used to throw up 100 all the time!

Wish we had a metroflex around here!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Anabolic. Yes, that makes sense. I usually do them on the #2 setting. On the #3 setting, I definately feel it more in my shoulders. But, is it still wise to do a higher angle at times for upper chest? I guess what I am asking is does it make any difference going to #2 and #3 settings on the adjustable incline bench for variation in upper chest??

When I use the #3 setting I go lighter, and try to get more stretch at the bottom. I do feel em more in the shoulders, but I think every 3-4 workouts using the steeper angle is good.
