How to Do the Incline Dumbbell Press With Perfect Form. Lie on a bench set to a 45-degree incline, holding a pair of dumbbells at arm’s length above your chest, palms forward. Keeping your core braced and your elbows close to your body (i.e., not flared), lower the dumbbells.The incline press does that if you keep your core tight and don’t arch your back.
But arching your back closes that upper arm angle (and cuts the distance of the actual press too), and that defeats.You can do the incline dumbbell press with your torso anywhere between a 30 and 45 degree angle to the floor. If you go much lower than 30 degrees, then you won’t be putting enough emphasis on the upper chest. Go higher than 45 degrees, and you’ll be putting too much emphasis on the shoulders.
Personally, I prefer 45 degrees:p.PERFORMING THE INCLINE DUMBBELL PRESS WITH GOOD TECHNIQUE Grab two dumbbells and position yourself in front of a bench set up at a 30 to 45-degree incline Place the dumbbells on your lower thigh, right above your knees Maintain the dumbbells in this position and sit down on the lower end of the bench.When performing the incline press, pay close attention to the following: 1. Grab a pair of dumbbells and rest them vertically on your thighs while sitting on the seat of an incline bench.
2.Lay on an incline bench and hold a dumbbell in each hand just above your shoulders, with your arms close to your body. Extend your arms directly above you until they’re completely straight.
Then.The Incline Bench Press is a version of the traditional Bench Press in which the bench is positioned at about a 45-degree angle. The resulting inclined position targets your upper chest and the.
Incline Bench Press Variations. This exercise has a few variations. Smith machine incline bar, close grip incline bar (more for triceps), Incline dumbbell flies, and incline dumbbell presses. I get a lot out of dumbbell incline presses rather then bar but that’s preference.
I do them every other week working my way up to a heavy set of 5.How to do Incline Dumbbell Bench Press Lay back on an incline bench, holding a pair of dumbbells with a neutral grip and placing them with their heads on top of your thighs. Push the weights up using your thighs and lift the dumbbells to shoulder width. Rotate your wrists so that your palms are facing forward.
Set up a bench at an incline of 30-45° and sit with your feet flat on the floor and your back on the bench. Lift the dumbbells to chest height with your palms facing forwards. Breathe out and.Exercise Instructions Adjust the bench to 30-45 degree incline. Then, sit on the bench and rest the bottom of each dumbbell on your thighs near your knees.

With the incline press, you’re a bit at the disposal of the bench itself as to the exact angle. Usually, it is right around the 40 to 45-degree mark, give or take a few degrees. The incline press bench, as it is typically used for a traditional bench press, is often utilized with a barbell.

Improper Head position. Thank you very for this man. Been searching alot about incline dumbbell press i always have this pain in my left shoulder every time i do it.
I just did incline press today! Good timing. I’ll review my video and make sure I didn’t cut my range of motion short
He’s pressing 45 pounds while giving commentary on how to do the workout… I’m gassed with 25 pounds lol
You guys were right. The head tilt shifts the stress on incline press. I had no idea I did this.
Neck down can also increase neural tension which also isn’t good.
Odd question… but what do you guys use to shave your chest and belly?
I think you need a video JUST for the kick back technique .. #struggles
Looking good! going to the arnold fitnes expo thos year? i want to meet you guys
Hey man these were some really good points do you think incline cable flys are good due to it having constant tension?
What do you guys think of the incline Hammer Strength machine?
Thought I had this down but there were some really good extra tips in there. Didn’t even consider head placement to be an important consideration.
I’m personally a huge fan of these. Everytime it makes me realize how many different ways I can fix my form to get better results. thanks as always Colossus
If your upper chest is lagging, the incline bench press is a great way to place a bit more emphasis on the upper portion of your pectoralis major. But if not executed correctly, you will bring a lot more shoulders into the movement and even the amount of weight you can lift for a set of 8 reps will be greatly reduced. But don’t worry guys! My 3 GOLDEN RULES are all you need to stay on track and progress with this exercise!

I love how good he explains everything. I always look him up for all my workout to be sure I’m doing it right
Stupid man don’t talk too much ; people expect from u to see how u r doing press not ur bla bla bla ; that we daily hear from bloody politicians; next ur video talk less nd show how to do still u can get money from u tube
I dont get it, i thought you said that we should train the lagging muscules when they are pre-exausted to recruit more “latent muscule fibres” not at the beginning of the workout
My lower chest is lagging. I hade great upper and middle chest but my lower doesnt have enough muscle and its fat. If you touch my chest my upper and lower is pump. It’s look like a edited picture
I’ve always watched Scott’s old videos…..when did he pick up the Bahston accent?
I can do heavier sets of bench press but when I do incline, I have to lessen the weight.
Idk how to not go too deep, most of the time I feel it on my shoulders:/
Why is he wearing a microphone?? He’s not talking to a packed lecture hall, he’s talking to a camera 4 feet away form him.
The damn incline bench at my gym is like sitting straight up. Fixed position. Is this not focusing on my chest enough??
Woah! I just couldn’t recognize you. Not because you didn’t say, “Hey, this is Scott from ScottHermanFitnessdotcom, but cause you look so buff and younger!
Scott, as a beginner to the gym, your videos have been crucial to helping me execute my exercises properly and giving me the confidence to go into the gym and try weight training for the first time in my life. I’ve been training consistently for 8 weeks now and have never felt better! Thank you so much for all you do!✨
Hi Scott, thanks for the tips. I have one question though. I try to pack my shoulders all the time since I found out your channel. But at the top position of pressing dumbbells, my shoulders protract a little bit. I can’t see if yours also protract too and it is normal because of the movement or not. Or maybe I press too much and that’s the reason why my shoulders protract but I feel like I can let them protract more if I want to. So I don’t know what I am doing wrong…
So the incline dumbell press is the same thing as the incline hammer press?
I’m 15 and by next summer I want a massive chest. Any tips Scott? I’m going to lift Monday Wednesday Friday and Saturday. But don’t know how many reps or sets each day
I’ve always been wary of arching my back. Can’t wait to get a fresh pump with this form later on.
are you supposed to rotate your wrist on the way up so that you end up almost in the starting position for dumbbell flys?
Just did these tonight and even doing them with 70 lb dumbbells I felt a lot more power and no shoulder impingement, which is an accomplishment for my weak ass haha. Your videos have helped me come a long way with developing more strength and size without injury and pain. Your clients are lucky to have you.
NAILED the tip and delivery for this video! Absolutely helpful for any fitness level! Well done bro!
I remember watching Scott 8 years ago.. him, Rob Riches, Greg Plitt, Jeff Cavalier.. best fitness guys on youtube
Good for you, light is 45lbs. Not the thing you want to say in a demo video champ.
Heavy squats helps build arm size… I used to do heavy squats 400 lbs and that’s why I have big arms!
Arnold Schwarzenegger used a technique called the breathing squat to increase his chest size!
What do you mean activation? are you a chemical bodybuilder…. steroids increases protein synthesis!
Man you are an example and a personal rule model, thanks for the good and eficient information
Hey Scott!I am very glad you made a video like this.Recently I found out that if I want to fill the clavicle with muscle,I really need to focus on the Upper Chest.And I really want to thank you for guiding me through the incline bench.Thumbs up and keep teaching us properly as always!
Scott can you please tell me your shoulder and waist measurements? (Circumference)
Guys if you have a time then please check out my one year natural transformation without supplementation…
I’m definitely not going to show this video to my wife. She would like this guy.
Hey, Scott! Newbie question: I do the push pull leg split and I’m wondering if it’s cool to train Biceps and back the day after Chest, shoulders and triceps or vice versa? I know they’re different muscle groups but I wonder if there my be a slight overlap, for example if a little bit of the shoulders might get worked when doing back exercises and if so if it’s enough to break the rule of waiting at least 48h to train the same muscle group again?
Off topic question do you still play dokkan? If so who did you 4 anni pulls go?
Scott, is it ok to turn/rotate the dumbell as you come down?
When I first started working out I used to think Scott was huge for a natty. Haven’t seen his videos in a while but I can’t even tell if he workouts anymore:(
Thanks for the advice. and I have a very important question. when starting the exercise I can’t apply this trick because the seat of the bench is making 90 degree angle with the back part of the seat. I mean the seat is not flat whenever you change the degree from 0 to 30 or 45. This is limiting me so I can’t start the inclined dumbell press with the same weights I lift in the flat bench press. please advise me what to do in this case.
many thanks in advance!
Good content Scott. My only question for you is, how far should the dumbbells be as I press? Just above the nipple line, on the nipple line, or a little beneath it?
Hey Scott what about the position of the incline itself what’s too high or too low?
I’m 45 yo and have lost 20kg in 6months. I have unsubscribed from ALL other “fitness trainer” channels and will be focusing on your vids only from here on. I’m in a really positive position right now with regards to my progress. YOU SAID IN ONE OF YOUR RECENT VIDS “THIS IS THE SIZE I WANNA BE”, “THIS IS HOW I WANNA LOOK”. I loved hearing that man, seriously! Thanks for your honest, natural approach.
thanks for letting me know it activates the entire chest! so many misguiding videos show you need 3 firkin exercises for each muscle.
So like, is doing this with an incline better than just doing it with the bench flat?
What angle do you recommend setting the bench for an incline press?
Great tips. When you do these demonstrations can you show one where you are using a weight that is heavy for you? I find that when I’m rolling back into the bench with a weight that is really heavy it looks/feels different even though I know it’s not supposed to be.
Im new here so i want to know what u train most high reps to build muscle or strenght. I mean like your personal experience
if anyone could answer this question I’d be very thankful. there’s a lot of different opinions on whether to have your incline bench at 45° or 35° during incline dumbbell press. I have it on 45° but I commonly see “gym dudes” in my gym have it at 30° because “it puts more tension on the upper chest and less tension on the shoulders”. Is this true?
Tried adding this exercise into my chest/tricep workout for the first time yesterday and had to abort almost immediately due to shoulder pain. Just checking out this video to see how I might be doing it wrong.
Omg. Mamma miaaaa..
Uuff..
Naamm naamm
How it should be
Just right body
!!!!!!
Thanks for this. I’m still trying to build that thick chest. Im sure this will help.
Your information is always helpful, your honest, straight forward, and very knowledgeable, thank you for sharing great tips and training techniques, your channels rocks!
Always felt weird when packing my shoulders (liiiiikely due to harming it long time ago doing kung Fu).
Can’t say how many times I’ve repeated this and your upper body 1 vid for the proper form when training anything related to benches. Thanks so much for all the tips Scott!
I really like your videos but PLEASE figure out what to do with your hands!
The number 1 golden rule he forgot to mention is make sure you got plenty of dianabol and winstrol
You know you upper chest is lagging if you have them shifty collar bone popping out
Thank you sir for the info, i’ll try that squeezing the glutes tips next time. Also do you have any tips on how to better establish mind muscle connection with chest?
Looks like you dont take your own advice. Your upper chest is lacking. Maybe, just maybe, besides being skinny, you should take some time to look the part.
Kids, this is what a natural, in shape body looks like.
Sincerely,
Old guy
Thanks, great advice. I always get a better pump from doing dumbbells!
Thank you very much. Fimally someone explains simple and correct. Thanks again
Hi, thank you for your infos… my problem on my chest is that they are not at the same line. Left one looks higher than right one while their sizes are almost same… do you have any suggestion about my problem?
You forgot to tell them that the incline of the bench needs to be 15 or 30 degrees anything over 30 your doing shoulders
Alright guys here’s the thing, ever since I got my home gym equipment together, when I’m on the incline bench.
Usually when I’m pushing 70 kg with the barbell included and when I’m around the 6th to 8th, i start to feel the joint on the outer end of my right elbow literally grinding together and yes my elbows are not flared, shoulder blades pulled back and down and the rest, the thing is its not painful but it’s still very frustrating. But anyways for now I’ve ditched the barbell press and focusing on other press variations for the upper chest and this never happened at my local gym before the lockdowns.
shut the fuck up about “45 is very light for me” holy shit unsubbed fuck off
oh thanks did it right this time having problems with that workout
Bad form ur talking bout 45 n 90 degrees but don’t do it right urself
when lowering the dumbells do you go to the nipple line or more towards the upper chest
HOLY SHIET this exactly what I need! There is this old dude around 40+ in my gym telling me to lock my elbow and stop the movement as soon as my elbow formed a 90 degree angle. He told me not to go all the way down because it will not affect my chest!??
So I told him that, I do feel more tension when I go all the way down and I got result from it. I was about to ask you a question regarding this matter and this video of yours come up.
THANK YOU!
Best online instructor ever!
I have been training since I was 16 years old. Currently I am 76 years old! Your training videos are the best I have seen, especially since I am very knowledgeable due to my many years of experience.
first time doing incline dumbbell press today and I did not know what I was doing at all, this video really helped!
I keep getting clicking noises when I do 20kg, but when I do 14kg there is nothing, help!
I’ve got a rotary cuff injury on one of my shoulders, so when I incline press the dumb bells are not at 45 degrees but the are parallel to my torso, does that make a difference?
this other video i watched said that keeping your elbows at 90° was wrong They said keep them at 45° angle. It looks like youre elbows are at 90°. Not sure who is right/wrong
Outstanding video mate! I’ve been doing the incline press for some years now and looking at tweaking my technique. You have done a great job at breaking the execution down into stages I’ve never seen before in other videos…! awesome!
Grande…..Bel canale….E’ molto importante la postura negli esercizi ed eseguirlo bene!!!!Ottima esecuzione!
Great. Everytime I lay on the bench i’m gonna hear ‘aaaacch ya back’. Haha, thanks Scott!!
whenever I arch I always feel restricted range of motion in my shoulders which I feel like could lead to an impingement
How important is it to tense at the top of the excercise? Does it make a big difference in terms of gains. I always find my forgetting to do it
The reason i believe this guy is because he doesnt intake any kind of roids cycle hats off to u my friend
I really appreciate the step by step, I feel like I became more knowledgable with my own incline and for when I help my students.
Thanks dad! Brilliant video. Perfect timing for tomorrow’s workout . “Squeeze those pecs!”
My problem retracting my shoulders I can never hold that position♂️
120 pound dumb bells and your on the gear tell the audience that as well!
Like the addition of depth. Which a lot of people don’t mention
I want to built my biceps quickly what can i do for it plz guide me?
Captain how are you? I want to ask you to write a course for me I have been living for more than two years and I can not find a coach I write a session I suffer from weakness at the top of the chest Please help me send my body pictures on the intrest to you and write me a course
been looking everywhere for a descent video on incline dumbell press. no other video shows us from the side it seems. thanks, man
Exceptional. Thank you so much for this video! Really well informed and you covered so much ground!
I believe i have good form but my shoulders gets more activation than my chest when i do incline dumbbell press
what about the angle elbow and shoulder… one instructor told me that elbow should be little close to ribs for better chest muscles activation… is that right?
You should pick up the dumbbells just like a deadlift. Feet under handle, bend knees and lift. Then sit with the dumbbells.
Great video but the elbows were far below 90 and the arms were far above 45 from the body..
I’m having troubles to get in positions, kicking the dumbbells up. Any suggestions? Thanks
Sir, Mike your client is pretty taller than you please let me know his height
I REALLY LIKED THIS VIDEO, YOU ARE THE BEST, I LOVED IT ❤️
But if your arch this much doesn’t it just become similar to a flat bench?
My gym just removed the only incline barbell bench press effin horrible!
Solid video Scott. I’m an intermediate to advanced lifter, but form touch ups are always useful! Hopefully this helps me progressive overload past 100’s sometime soon on DB incline!
Show some love Scott says here you go ❤ thanks for the golden tips Scott
CLICK THAT NOTIFICATION BELL SO YOU NEVER MISS AN UPLOAD!
Having that ‘shelf’ look for your upper chest is what we all want. That’s why we have the incline press!
Bruh 50 is the max dumbbells I can do and this guy just does it like it’s nothing
go low to grow. That’s a good angle. Anything over 30 degrees is a shoulder press.
Thought this channel was nother gym bro crap. But hands down best workout instructions on youtube. Subscribed.
Buenos videos y buena explicación pero pasan demasiado rápido las letras. Eso no me gusto:(
Thanks for making your videos short and to the point. When I’m at the gym I don’t need an anatomy lesson
At least I know why my shoulder is in pain now. My bench was at a 60-45 degree angle. Whoops. Let’s hope I haven’t damaged anything too bad
So much rubbish in this video.
You can not target chest parts, the whole chest works. You can not shape the chest, the shape of the chest is genetic.
Hey Scott, I need help. Is it safe to use that 90 degree angle? I always use a 75 degree angle because I’m afraid to injure my shoulders.
Steroids thin your hair! Avoid the roid! ON another note, thanks for info:)
I’m just here for the accent. The fitness advices are bonuses…
This was really helpful, Mike, thanks.
I’m a skinny trying to gain weight and fairly new to lifting.
The biggest thing for me lifting weights is the mind-muscle connection. After going 36 years of having hardly any muscles, you don’t really know what some of them feel like rofl.
why did you not show that the weights do not touch? not just video your chest?
He’s a disgrace to the profession. He looks like a prisoner. Put your shirt on Convict
Good demo. db incline is my main lift for chest. I have no problem hoisting the db’s up with lighter weights, but when they get heavy (around my 6 rep max) I struggle getting them into position with my knees and momentum (in the manner you demonstrate). Any tips on how to avoid this unnecessary energy expenditure?
Over the years I have watched minimal YouTube videos all the way until the end but I always watch yours until the very end! I found you on here a few weeks back and you have soooooo much amazing knowledge. I started gym training nearly 20 years, have trained lots and lots if things but now getting back into bodybuilding, you are helping me with so many things I wasn’t doing correct! I bought your 30 week hypertrophy training also because you talk so much sense!
I just honestly LOVE your demonstrations, it has helped me so much, especially when I first started gym to not look silly haha so thank you!
I like your videos Dude, I’ve learnt a lot from you. Thanks heaps
YOU KNOW WHAT I LIKE ABOUT SCOTT? YOU CAN TELL HIS BODY IS NATURAL…UNLIKE SO MANY OF THOSE TRAINERS YOU SEE THERE WHO ARE DEFINITELY JUICIN’.
what do you recommend for an alternative to incline db and incline barbell? I have a neck injury that gets activated every time I do the incline. thanks!
Great stuff my man! You addressed shoulder issues, but could you could address elbow pain when chest pressing? I feel like my form is perfect but when I dumbell press my elbows start to nag me. This doesn’t happen on barbell press funny enough. Thanks man!
I thought these videos were giving some great advice and visuals…. but ffs that sh1t music. Now i cant take you seriously. Its like the sh1t metal music some guys use for workouts. There are way too much pu$$ies out there. Don’t be one of them
Is it important that I take my t-shirt off before doing this?
90 degrees is the key! The pressure is more concentrated on the chest. Thank you fr pointing that out.
I have an ingual hernia. Can I follow your workout plan? Please help me out. Tx
My shoulder gave out on me today while I was incline dumbbell pressing, I felt as though my form was just about perfect, but when I reached the top to lock out position my right shoulder just gave out and the weight came crashing down and nicked me on the side. The pain wasn’t bad at all and I was able to finish my workout but now I’m just scared to incline dumbbell press, are their people who just don’t have strong enough shoulders for this? I was so pissed cause the weight went up fairly easily but my shoulder didn’t agree with it. Keep in mind I give myself about 5 or so minutes to warm up my shoulder and get it loose, I’m not sure what went wrong.
Attention trial guy blanket acquire army surprise slide fix suspect.
We need a video explaining how to gain your accent! #bahhhbell
Yo, is it typical to go lighter weight on the incline press vs the flat press?
Damn, thanks dude! Looks like I was doing it wrong; had the bench inclined way too much.
thanks scott it really made a difference with the back arch.
I have trouble holding my shoulders back while doing inlcines. So I don’t hit my upper chest that well. Does anyone has tips for me? Thanks.
I started benching on one of those inversion tables, saw it on YouTube somewhere. I incline and decline simultaneously seriously though need proper form. I messed around doing lateral raises on a machine no less, went up on weight and form was off. Pinched a nerve in my neck and had numbness down right arm. Ended up doing physical therapy.
guys
why my left shoulder has pain doing this shit?
shoulder press push up I have no sholulder pain
but this shit give me shoulder pain
why
just subscribed to you.. becuase you teach as a casual friendly person not as in a teacher… like it!
Anytime a trainer says “it’s not the weights it’s technique” I pay attention. I’ve made many mistakes with lifting listening to the wrong people and I’m still learning.
Aren’t you supposed to turn the weights a little? Like your elbow at 90 degrees? I feel it way more like that
So its okay that my dumbbells aren’t completely straight? They look crooked when I do this just like yours in the video
I like to keep my elbows in more (at about 90 degrees from my torso) I get a better contraction this way. Is this safe to do?
thanks man i am throwing 40kgs but sometimes like today i could barely start i mean i threw them and all but my right hand kinda blocked shoulder” that i couldnt lift right hand and press… horrible feeling hehe but i think i will have to use knee before to throw them i hope this will work also for heavy. thx liked subbed
Thought these wrre 50KG… then realised they were 50lbs… lol I was gonna say.
God damn this man is good at explaning. No hard latin words, no long ass 11 min videos just for money, no ads and straight to the meat. Thnak you sir!
Is the dumbbell still positioned above nipple line when doing chest press from incline position? Thanks
I seen that to!!!! that dude fingers came in slow to touch Mike hahahahahahahahah
I can’t watch videos without your boston accent anymore. I love it.
My shoulders are my weakest muscle group right now but i cant tell of im just weak there or if i have wrong form. I feel it more in my shoulders than my chest
UPPER CHEST FIRST CAUSE ITS LAGGING FOR MOST PEOPLE, ANOTHER PROBLEM, CHEST GAP, WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF CHEST GAP? BAD GENETICS? BAD TRAINING PROGRAM? OR LACK OF MASS?
Raw entirely chemical rear story shine blue unknown low parking.
Mike Thurston has done his homework and it shows. His knowledge and breakdowns on biomechanics and proper effective form is pure gold.
cool workout, but is that ridiculous noise relay necessary on the breath out? lol you are American i suppose. haha
3:33 “so you’ll have to let your ego go a bit. Even I don’t go heavy” Classic irony
Webster’s creating a whole new dictionary for the words Scott uses:) Have you ever thought of doing subtitles for us that don’t paark r caar in gaarage
You are the one who has the biggest and perfect chest among all bodybuild YouTubers I’ve ever seen
Would u do incline dumbell and incline barbell press on the same dayb id is that kinda foolish
This guy goes against everything I have ever heard about bench press….Elbows straight out?? what?!!
After 3 years of lifting I finally felt my upper peck stretch, when you get an adrenaline rush from feeling like a noob, Mikes explanation takes every workout to a new level. My head legit feels more tired than my muscles!! This channel is huge!
This guy is good! I learned this exact way from a former Mr. Universe James Gaubert. Few people teach this well and with mindfulness.
Excellent video Mike the gain is all in the technique!Much appreciated keep up the great work
I have the same issue as this kid has. My left pec is larger than my right and in my opinion so are my arms. I’m right hands and feel my right side is stronger than my left. Could you go into more details perhaps at resolving this issue especially with the pecs. Thanks so much love you videos!!
Thanks for the video. What I learned from this video is not stretching out too wide and to focus on the center point of the upper fibers when contracting going up
For a second I thought he’s coaching John Stones! The English dudes they all look alike hehe
Good video, I wish you would cover mounting and un-mounting the weight a little more.
light weight=45 pounds. Yeah its light if you are going to the gym for like a 6 months.
That’s pretty cool looking gym with surrounded colour lights.
What is he saying at 11:32?
I’m curious because i feel a fatigue in my left front delt, when i train chest (especially inclined exercises)
I would love Mike to be my personal trainer for chest workout activities.
hey guys,
From this video I feel that when he goes down, his elbows are inline with his shoulders.
Wouldn’t that damage his shoulders?
I was always told to make elbows like 45-75 degrees to shoulders so that you won’t damage those shoulders.
Or is this wrong?
Thanks
Mike you really know your stuff.. there was me just thinking you winged it through life by being a beautiful bastard
Does incline dumbbell press workout the top of your shoulders and like all of your upper body?
Lifting 50kgs is the main charge used in this exercise by all famous youtubers in bodybuilding
I watch as many videos as I can to improve this was really good cheers
Great video! I’ve tried to build my upper chest for years and had been doing it the wrong way too much front delt. This resulted in my front delts becoming overly developed and my upper chest is still lagging. Only in the last year have I made the necessary changes but it will take a few years to correct the imbalances unfortunately
Kind of irrelevant but that lighting would annoy the fuck outta me lol
I’m 70kg and I’ve been lifting 32.5kg dumbells on incline, wondered why I’m not getting any burn in my chest, what a twat . I’ll try 20kg next time with this form. Cheers mike
When I do this excercise my triceps feel the burn more rather than my upper chest
Some great tips Mike. I’m guilty of tucking in my elbows too much on the incline press, but now I know better. Cheers pal:)
This is the first guy in YT who actually makes good form videos and i feel like i’m actually learning. You earned a sub sir
I started lifting at 55 after two knee replacements. I was amazed at how many different muscles and what I have to do to activate them. its the joints I have to watch for and going slow on the legs. Thanks for you videos. You were right about the chest activation too one day it was oh yeah there they are.
When you guys across the pond say “cheeky” I’m not quite sure what that means in U.S. language. Thank you Mike for your extraordinary advise. I’m 63 and still at it.
You with cap you dont know whot y doing!! I m bigger then y! I Can left bigger then y!!!! Y Dant know whot y doing!
Great vid, great explaining, changde thet way i think when i do incline, can you do a dumbell shoulderpress next?
I am confused! A lot of people told me that I could inure my shoulder, if I do wide presses! And now I see a huge dude telling me the exact difference! Not sure what I should believe in
Superb vid Mike. I have finally understood why i have the imbalance between n my chest: i am better at retracting one scapula over another. Thanks again.
Literally perfect tutorial, answered every possible question. Great stuff
Playlist on-point video amazing pure knowledge thanks a lot Mike you are the best
This guy know what he’s talking about. I know I have to go lighter
I bet this is what they show the local gym trainers with no certificates
Thanks again Scott.. clearest instruction.. save us beginners unnecessary injury
Hello Mike, do you ever change the incline angle of degree? Appreciate your information & knowledge
I can t do this. How am I supposed to retract my shoulders if they are pressed against the bench?
Could you possibly do a tutorial like this for other exercises, like lat raises or some back exercises?
Do you do cardio? Your thoughts on should bodybuilders do cardio?
Since i follow Mike, i made so much gains.. I see people in my gym lifting way to heavy day in day out, and making no gains. I am becoming stronger and i am gaining a lot of muscle! Thanks!!
to avoid rotater cup injury how low or high or correct area for the dumbell and proper incline should the bench be??
Great tutorial scott however, I think raising your bum while bench pressing doesn’t necessarily mean you’re loosing power as it will naturally happen when you’re benching heavy and you’re harnessing power from the ground by pushing your feet against it. As long as your core, glutes are tight as you have mentioned it won’t break your kenetic chain. Same principle as doing push ups. slightly raising your bum to compensate with the heavy load isn’t an issue. It’s just my opinion. ✌
Great video like always, I almost gave up on my upper chest but I guess there’s still a chance:D.
Do you have any tips how to implement incline dumbell press “done your way” in FBW workout?
heavy barbell bench press/+ incline dumbell press seems a bit scary strength wise
You should make a video about fixing that back problem you mentioned at the end!!
Waaooow!?! Shit this works good as f**k! Thanks!! I feel a great stretch!
Exceeeeeellent explanation!!!Superb instruction!!!Thanks
