Barbell Incline Bench Presses : To develop the mass and strength of
the pectorals muscles (middle and upper chest) and front deltoids.
Changing the
angle of the movement so you are pressing at an incline tends to put
extra stress on the upper chest muscles and make the deltoids work
harder. But you will find you can't lift as much weight as you can when
doing a Flat Bench Press
1) Lie back
on an incline bench. Reach up and grasp the bar with a medium-wide grip.
Lift the bar off the rack and hold it straight up overhead, arms locked.
2) Lower the
weight down to the upper chest, stop for a moment, then press it back up
to the starting position. When working at an machine, it is extremely
important to find the right "groove" or you are likely to find the bar
drifting too far forward. It is useful to have a training partner to
spot you while you are getting used to this movement.
