Incline / Decline / Flat

[LAM]

most people who are efficient at flat bb benching normally can decline more, it's a more natural movement with less of a ROM...

When I was in high school everyone loved the decline bench, because yes you can bench more on there. Right now though I'm not sure I like it so much, the angle seems a tad severe (almost like dips), I just stick to dips for the most part.

if you do decline db presses you will never have to complain about not making progress in your chest development...

I love dumbells, the barbell stuff feels a bit odd to me now, even though years ago I had no problem on the decline. Really my upper chest needs the work though, so I generally concentrate on that.

 

[arbntmare]

should decline be a first excersie then??

 

[Mudge]

If your lower chest lags, which is abnormal, usually its the upper chest. Every once in awhile I like to switch to flat bench first though.

my lower chest lacks like a turtle(slow)... maybe today will be a new start for my chest work out... pump that iron in that bitching body part... EYE OF THE TIGER!
