Usually the inverse of what you prefer on incline. For most, this is ~15-30 degrees.Originally Posted by DegreeZ
Bodybuilding is 60% training and 50% diet. Yes that adds up to 110%, because that's what you should be giving it. Change the inside, and the physique will follow.

If that's uncomfortable, try a different angle. There is no "ideal" angle.Originally Posted by DegreeZ
