*A recent study examined chest activation at various points within the performance of different angles of pressing. The researchers found significant upper chest activation with the incline bench particularly in the second quarter of the lift. 


So, to really hit the upper chest, not only is the angle important but the range of motion as well. You can do this by using the 1.5 method.

How to Do It


1 Lower the dumbbells to your chest.

2 Push the dumbbells halfway up and lower it back down.

3 Now push the dumbbell all the way up.


That's one rep. It's brutal and extremely effective. - T Nation
