The wider the grip the more you are working your chest, the narrower the more you hit your tri's.
so i should just do inclines and declines only with a wide grip. no level or flat press. sounds good to me.
I think you should do flat press first to get like a starting bar as to where your at. Then from there usually decline is easier then incline. Flat will hit both upper and lower but not as much as if you were to use decline/incline. I just use flat right now Its hard for me to do incline or decline without a spotter.
i find it easier to do the incline then flat. i dont know, but...
It also depends on how much of an incline and how much of a decline. But it may be awkward just to start doing decline because the feel is weird, if you've never done it before. Personally I can bench more on decline than flat, and incline, obviously. If you are doing incline, I think 30 degrees is the best, once you go up to 45 and higher it starts working your shoulders as well.
decline is physically supposed to be easier I think. It never worked well for me, I couldn't feel anything and the position was awkward for me. I might try it again but I'd rather try incline first again.
