UNLOCK Your Upper Chest: Best Bench Angle 

bruh go to the gym lmao

@@quantashonjamaldigglerbury4934 Can't swing it.

@@AmazingAutist the best decision you can ever make bro. Go for it

@@ahmadabusamra6528 okay you know what? I will. I'll look for some affordable gyms around my area.

@@AmazingAutisti was afraid to go gym but i went alone my first day 🗿

They have that lmao not every bench just goes from 15 to 30 degrees, there are more notches

​@@wat5709in my gym is only 15 and 30 :'(

@@bimbon123 put 5lb plates under the back of the bench at 15 degrees

I found that 30 degrees hurt my shoulder joints unless I was having extreme leg drive and bringing my ass off the bench. So I leave the bench at 30, but put a 2.5kg plate under the front leg. This doesn’t hurt my shoulders at all and I feel a great pump in my upper chest, which has allowed me to progres in strength. The smallest change can make the biggest difference.

I want 37.5 degree

me too

Agree

Same

هلا ولله يا ال مصر ❤

يا حلاوه 😂

Bro i dont feel my chest when i am doing bench press , am doing the movement correctly 100% , maybe its because i am new

​@@H4rd3lmake sure to have a slight arch in your back and pull your shoulders back

😂😂😂

Thats literally just shoulder press 😭

That's literally shoulder press, though... Either you're just confused or your friends are delusional LMAOOO

Bro secretly love's training shoulders 💀💀

I see people do it all the time I’m glad I learned this early on

You're better off at 45° w/ arch. The arching creates more stability and decreases the decline by another 15°

I personally would increase those sets/weight and low reps

I only do incline, never flat

@@MrKyriakos32I am 6’6 230 pounds. My chest got big af when I started holding the reps and using heavy weight.

@@manealst7249 Can you clarify what you mean by holding the reps, please? Do you mean hold the stretch at the bottom, or hold at a specific portion of the concentric? Or something else?

@@MrKyriakos32more sets is unnecessary you don’t need more than 4 per muscle group per training session you can get away with 2-3 sets of you only train to failure

I recommend using a ez-grip cambered bar (the wavy ergonomic bars). Puts a lot less strain on your wrists and shoulders when you do that movement

​@@metbear3 Dumbell gives better Chest contraction

@@ia796 i agree. I think mixing it up is good too

EZ grip or dumbbells only in that case

No because your strength is so much decreased that it's not worth it. It's like doing front raises instead of ohp.

same bro

How about you educate them?

You know that decline and incline train like way different parts of the chest right?

​@@leonvanpetegem1663 ofc he would know wtf is that question?

@PrinceLarryKoopa it went well. I've been doing this on my push days if I don't have enough time to do my normal program. So I'll do this a lower chest machine 9n my quicker push days.

Not that simple. Some of us are over 6ft2 and 30° hits more middle chest where as 4t is better for Chest

Just do dips as they target lower chest, also flat bench and dumbell press also target the mid and lower chest so that would probably be enough

😂Epic lmao

@@olau5478 LEMAO 🤣🤣🤣😂

@@bird9455 roflol 😅

retract shoulder blades and push chest out. imagine your pushing yourself away from a table

@@shlekmirkarin6429 I tried that but I still feel more activation from my delts I almost feel like I’m pulling the weights more than pushing

So incline at 45 degrees worked both your upper chest and front delts?

@Hernan Murillo oh yeah I used to do 30 degree for upper chest and didn't see much growth at all but now I'm seeing some pretty quick results both in front delt and upper and upper inner chest

Atlantis

You can,45 is still better than just doing it flat. If you really are desperate just put a plate below the bench so your 0 angle becomes like 10-15

You can. These "science based" youtubers are all saying different things. This guy says study shows 30 is better, other dudes say study shows 45 is best. I honestly don't even know what to believe anymore. I'm currently doing 30 with dumbbells and 45 with barbell. You'll be fine bro 👌

15 more overall chest 30 more upper chest and shoulders

In your case I’d go with a 10° degree option

Anything above 30° is going to recruit your anterior delts more than you upper chest anyway.

Solution: 1. Set it to 35 degrees. 2. Put a weight plate (or book stack) under the front leg of your bench which will lower the inclination down to 25-30 degrees. Good times!
