Incline Barbell Bench Press

Foundational upper-chest builder. Performed lying on a bench set to a 30-45 degree incline, pressing a barbell from the upper chest to lockout. The incline biases the load to the upper portion of the chest (clavicular head of the pectoral) and the front delts. Distinct from Barbell Bench Press (flat bench — primarily mid-chest), Decline Barbell Bench Press (decline — primarily lower chest), Incline Dumbbell Press (DB variant, with greater stabilization demand and natural ROM). A staple of every classic bodybuilding split.
