Decline Chest/Bench Press For Lower Pecs

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Say what you want but I bet at 80 he looks the same and will be active as fukk still

fukk that, we chasing muscles out chea.

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Definitely not, he out here looking like he just had a c section

I'm doing the opposite of whatever he's doing.

I don’t know why people think you can’t be pliable and lift weights. Google Jefferson curls if you don’t know what they are. Using a 1 to 2 second hold at the bottom of a fly with cables or dumbbells stretches the pec. 1 to 2 second hold at the bottom of a lunge stretches your hip flexor. Squatting ass to grass stretches everything in your lower body.

Tom Brady is a salesman. That’s all. If he gets more people in the gym, cool. Not shytting on his method. I’m just saying there are alternatives to what he offers.

Do all my chest work with cables now after reading Brady’s book it’s all
About pliability

This

I dropped decline and flat bench altogether.

It’s mainly free weight incline, machines, and cables.

I was told not to waste my time with decline in a book I was reading called “tools of titans”

I do incline with dumb bells. Each rep takes about 5 to 8 seconds. Time under tension is my philosophy.
3 seconds up, hold for 2, 3 seconds down.

You’re one of the few people I’ve ever heard mention TUT. It’s one of the most important aspects of a workout and goes ignored.

Dap and rep!

That’s what’s up. I’m glad it’s working out for you. I started using TUT 2 years ago.

3 workouts a week when programmed properly is plenty for most people but don’t be afraid of more work depending on your Neurotype. When I’m under stress at work or home I do 3 days/week. Low stress, 6 days a week with different splits. I let life dictate my workouts.

This year I started studying my PICP level 1 and 2 courses. Passed all the tests, I just need to record myself doing the level 1 and 2 assessments. I have until May to turn it in.

I also took Christian Thibaudeau’s neurotyping and hypertrophy courses.

The programs I’ve been coming up with for my friends and family have been amazing. Nothing but gains for everyone.

I’ll be taking a metabolic conditioning and bio mechanical assessment course next year. Once I’m done getting certified I’ll be doing online coaching for supplemental income. Wish me luck.

I remember reading a study they did on how much muscle activity there was during certain exercises, they found declines didnt affect the lower pecs any more than incline did

That’s not why I add decline to my rotation. I add them in for variety. It’s another tool in the toolbox. They aren’t a waste of time.

When you get a proper (natural) arch on the flat bench, I really don't see any reason to do decline bench. Not to mention that it can be awkward to get into proper position, especially if your gym doesn't already have one set up. Dips and high to low cable fly should be more than enough to get the job done.

I kinda figured the same thing. Good to see most agree with it. I don't like doing unnecessary workouts.
