For the last 2 months I did incline before flat bench and have never been able to lift more on flat while doing this. Today I finally surpassed my incline weight on flat bench, now I can't wait untill i start doing flat first in my routine.
Incline Bench 11/18
135 x 6*-warmup
185 x 6*-warmup
225 x 10
275 x 5
225 x 8
Flat Bench
225 x 8
275 x 7
295 x 4
I really think that working on heavy close-grip bench helped since my tris didn't fail before my chest, and pause sets to help on my acceleration throughout the movement..... all sets done with a pause at the bottom and full range of motion....
