incline bench press

[wolf23447]

Will adding the incline bench press to my routine increase my flat bench press?

[j.daddy]

Incline will help your overall chest apearance. Doing incline can help your flat bench like any other muscle, it helps to change the angle your hitting the muscle from. This stimulates different muscle fibers in a different way which helps the overall muscle.

I find that incline has a very good carryover to flat, but not the other way around.

[Jack_Lupino]

depends on how you flat bench. for me there's little to no cross-over in either direction since i use a narrow grip, elbows tucked and low bar position on flat.

[pumplikecuming]

Yes. Not from pec development, but from anterior deltoid development.

doing flat bench will help your flat bench. I hate when people post stupid ass questions like this.

If you want a big bench stop doing ****gy time split routines. Do fullbody 3x a week with no isolations. Do a 5x5 scheme and do heavy triples, doubles, and singles.

I just started my fullbody routine. These are the only exercises i include.

Bench
Squat
Dead
Rows
Supinated Lat Pulls
Military


My bench has gone up 10lbs in 2 weeks


The key to getting better at a lift is to repeat it over and over. Never changing your routine, just adding weight.

Think of it this way. Your not going to get the best you can at soccer if your also playing basketball.

I'm sick of people complaining about their bench not going up when all their ******* asses need to do is stop doing routines from muscle and fitness thinking they are some pro on roids, and do a fullbody 3 times a week with only the big lifts.

Good thing you proved me wrong.

Incline has a good effect on flat strengthens chest and hits the delts more than flat alone.... the two major movers in the lift

[dmg2]

To mix it up even more, you can add some decline presses too.

Didn't see anyone complaining about bench numbers. Why make it into that thread, if its not?

You need to stop talking in absolutes. Your 19, and just started your "fullbody". Wonder what routine you did before? Maybe a "****gy time split"?
