Damn, the transition from narrow to wide grip was good. You should isolate that clip.

I am going to pay more attention to my hands I just grip and go so sometimes I bet it is right and others not.

Yea a good tip for most exercise is to extend your thumb to the limit of the handle then grab there

@georgemichael7773 11 ай бұрын

Doesn’t work everyone this depends on the length of your arms and height I get a maximum contraction with close grip on the upper chest and if you if you go wide grip with shorter arms your going to be proned for shoulder injury

Good advice but remember folks, you need to figure out how it works for you and your chest. All depends all on you since everyone has a different body type. Go get it boys. 🤙

So are you counting weight together or separate per arm

@knownoboundaries___ 10 ай бұрын

Hmmm. Well, if mechanical tension is what you are looking for, then keep your hands in closer. Wouldn't having your hands in closer activate more chest fibers considering you are adducting? Yes, abducting your hands will cause the chest to lengthen, but if more tension is what you are looking for, keep the hands in and perform the movement.

@Ryan retract your shoulder. It may feel weird at first, but you'll end up feeling a crazy stretch of that pec. And also make sure the handle is around nipple level.

@hatman3005 Ай бұрын

It works the upper chest but its better to use dumbbells

@emalior5000 Жыл бұрын

Should the lower back be hard up against the back support, I see people move their buttocks forward but wouldn't this defeat the purpose of doing in incline. Butt forward turns it into a flat press in my opinion. True or not?

On a chest press machine it doesnt really matter imho. Maybe you'll slightly work less your upper chest conpared to the rest of the chest but at the end of the day you're still hitting the chest. Do whatever is more comfortable for you

Only that does the opposite of activating the chest, unless you’re also protracting the shoulders at the end of the press - precisely why powerlifters arch their back: to deload the chest and increase the amount of weight they can lift.
