Incline Bench Press Machine (plate loaded)

Sit against the inclined backrest with the handles near your upper chest and your feet firmly on the floor.

Keep your wrists straight and press the handles upward and forward.

Stop without locking your elbows, then slowly return the handles beside your chest.

The main working muscles are the upper chest. The triceps, front deltoids assist the movement.

Do not lift your hips off the seat or roll your shoulders forward as you press.

Exhale as you press and inhale as you return.

Load both sides evenly and choose a starting depth that is comfortable for your shoulders.
