Struggling to grow your upper chest? It's important to choose the right bench angle when doing incline dumbbell press. Most people will better activate and grow their upper chest chest with a lower incline. Try this out and you'll feel the difference right away! #shorts #shortsfeed #shortsvideo #shortsyoutube
