Increasing Incline Bench Barely Increases Flat Bench

what's your incline to flat bench ratio?

All I know is that when I incline bench my shoulder sounds like a Rusty door hinge....I dont like that much..

tbf I have a feeling I am fatigued because I start my sessions with weighted dips now. But after doing sets of 4 plate dips I flat bench 275 for reps afterwards



my incline is like working sets of 250 (fresh)



But I have a feeling once my incline reaches 275 for working sets it won’t carryover to my flat bench at all

That seems pretty even. Who cares if it carries over. If you're doing 275 for reps on incline that's mogger status. Speaking of which, did that dude who claimed 275x8 incline ever post a video?

thx brah

I’ll post it once I can get it for 5+ reps. Starting to realize that I don’t even need to go above 275 for reps since 405 flat is my goal.

I think that was hate liberals that claimed that? He’s full of chit & never delivered.

You do an incline bench to build your upper pecs. If you want a bigger flat bench just flat bench.

Its not rocket science boyo.
