Top5BEST Bench Press Variations 5BEST Infographics brought to you by: Top 1 TARGET AREAS Flat Bench Barbell Press The most basic and effective technique on a bench press. • Both feet planted on the floor. Buttocks and upper back pressed on the bench. • Breathe in as you pull down. Breathe out as you push up. • Take advantage on the full range of motion. Keep the scapulas tight at the bottom and wide apart with fully extended arms as you go up. MID CHEST SECTION 2 TARGET AREAS Incline Bench Barbell Press Best for balancing the chest for a more beefier look. • Slide up the bench to an inclined position. • Same position as with a flat bench, raise the weight vertically over your head following the same range of motion and breathing. • Also works well developing the traps and deltoid muscles at the same time. UPPER CHEST SECTION 3 TARGET AREAS Dumbbell Bench Press UPPER-MID CHEST SECTION A level higher than the barbell version. Can be done flat or inclined. • Make sure to plant the feet firmly on the floor and the buttocks pressed on the bench. • Work the dumbells at a symmetrical position left and right all the time and prevent them from going to different directions between reps. 4 Single Arm Dumbbell Bench Press TARGET AREAS Work this out for a symmetrical chest. • Still with the same position and breathing. • Push the dumbell up with one arm and use the other arm to balance yourself on the bench. Use a counter balance weight if necessary on the resting arm. UPPER-MID CHEST SECTION 5 TARGET AREAS Decline Bench Barbell Press Works well to give you the well pronounced chest look. Do this while working out the upper and middle sections of your chest. • Lock the bench on flat position and place a few weights under the bottom feet of the bench. Make sure that it is stable enough to support both your weight and the equipment your carrying. • With your glutes and your upper back firm on the bench push the weights vertically as you would on a flat bench.
