47+ Low Incline Bench Press Background. The resulting inclined position targets your upper chest and the frontside of your shoulders more the the standard flat bench. Performing this move on an incline allows for targeted emphasis on the upper portion of the chest.
Fairly simple movement, classic, effective in comparison to incline bench press, you'll be doing way better numbers on decline.
Flat bench places an even amount of stress on the lower and upper pec while also putting your shoulders in a vulnerable position. Position dumbbells to sides of chest with upper press dumbbells up with elbows to sides until arms are extended. This is much better for the shoulders and allows the upper pecs to do most of the work. This is high enough to emphasize the clavicular (upper) head of the pecs, but not so high that you're using mostly shoulder strength to complete the lift.
