i love your vids, but sometimes its not so easy to spot whats the correct way. here it seems that the second dude was incorrect but sometimes its the first one who does it bad. i am a beginner, maybe its because of that. or i am just dumb.
I just got a new home bench and I feel like the 30 degree is actually 45 degree. And the next level is flat or 45 which is really 55 not sure what I can do… my old bench 30 is good but is about yo break
Dude some people do both 30 and 45 degree incline bench to hit more upper chest AND shoulders. People have different goals. Shaming without knowing isn’t cool tbh…. I train both too because I like it and it has made my shoulders and chest benefit even more
To target the upper chest, you should set the bench at an incline. The specific degree of incline can vary depending on individual preferences and comfort levels, but a commonly recommended angle is between 30 to 45 degrees. This range places the emphasis on the upper portion of the pectoral muscles.
Keep in mind that targeting specific areas of the chest can be challenging, as the chest muscles (pectoralis major) work as a whole. Incorporating a variety of exercises, including different angles of bench press, flyes, and push-ups, can help develop overall chest strength and definition.
It's also important to note that focusing solely on upper chest exercises without working on other areas of the chest and incorporating a well-rounded training program may lead to muscular imbalances. It's generally recommended to have a balanced approach to chest training for optimal results.

Trueee, I see that way too often. No clue why everybody is almost trying to go for shoulder presses on incline bench
whats the right angle? first one or second one?

Hello shoulder pain
first day in the gym yesterday and i did this thanks bro 🙏🙏
Yeaaaa literally nearly doing half shoulder press / bench at that point. Facts
Why is this bad? You just work more delts. I find you can get target the upper pecs more as well
Whats with the faces man 😂
Literally me
This guy's knowledge is getting more and more misguided every day
Don't say stuff on the internet when you havent a clue what your saying …he keeps spreading miss information with his shitty shorts
Nothing wrong here if you wanna target more front delt work while still hitting some upper chest

Not true
Bro, at the ymca, that shit is practically a shoulder press machine, and yet even the biggest guys in there just go along with it
Look at the wrist angle when pressing, not really best practice to not get injured unless you keep the wrist straight
I couldn't feel upper chest, now i can
New subscriber 👏🏻👏🏻
Wait, so which one is right?
Ok I’ll try it then prick
Idk much about this but that inclination isn’t a little harmful for your shoulders
