Pec Programm

[Maximilian Knödl]

Hello coaches,
I will start the pec Programm next week. Why does the chest day have two incline motions ? Is it not the same, unless you have a converging machine or a different angle, maybe high incline? I only have a barbell, smith machine, cables and the nautilus flat chestpress machine. My dumbells are on the way, but for now I don’t have them. So I could only do barbell incline press and smith incline press( banded ), or cable incline press. Should I do maybe a decline smith press at the end ? Or stick to a smith incline, or cable incline ? Can you please explain why there two incline motions?

Best regards

Ok thanks Bryce ! So I go with the banded smith machine incline press, for the last exercise on the chestday. Suggestions are incline machine press and incline dumbell press. Would the dumbell press overload also more the Top range, were the joints are stacked ? Or what are the thoughts behind a incline barbell press and a incline dumbell press in the same workout ?

ok thanks that makes sense. Can you pls explaine the thoughts behind the programming ? I know changing exercises and orders is not that big of a deal, but im interested in the planning thoughts. Why starting twice a week with incline barbell press? for faster and better Progression?  And why is on chestday the second exercise the roller fly ? Most of Joes chest workouts the roller fly is in third. I really love the roller fly, its my favorite exercise, but why is it here in second and after that 2 presses following? For better feeling in the following Presses?  And why there no decline exercise ? Are incline Motions better for overall size ? Or it doesnt make a huge diffrence ?
