So you want more poundages on your bench

[Lord_Suston]

Oh, I keep it high to stretch my chest and work my shoulders...I guess that would explain why I use it for accessory work on my shoulders, and not for my chest. lol

Hey Spatts I am catching up to you

CL, do you feel like you get alot over carryover to your bench from military presses? I ask because I have never felt like they help as much for me, and I figured it's because I never bench over my head. If you don't, then maybe you could alternate military presses with inclines? I feel like close grip work hits the tris hard, and incline work hits the shoulders hard...so that's the top and bottom of your bench. They way I see it, they should work together to compliment your overall benching progress. Just speculation though.

good call. I have felt for a while that my shoulders were weak so i took up overhead pressing again.

I think I will start doing some inclines in my lifting; however it will be rather steep as all of my various gyms really only have benches at atleast 45 degress or higher

Next training cycle I'll be adding inclines. I think I'll have to slip some plates under the end of my bench to make it incline
