gm Fitcasters Starting to really like decline press. Doesn’t hurt your shoulders and you can load way more weight. I’m sure there’s a reason why no one at the gym uses it but I’m a fan 🤷♂️. Still trying to figure out how much I can handle so not sure how much to load yet. Really don’t want to drop this on myself 😁. 185 lbs @ 140.4 lbs BW. Think I had a few more in me here but this was for filming/gauging-the-weight purposes; felt a bit better controlled than earlier in the week.

The best cue I received on benches was to retract shoulder blades completely at the top position. This almost requires a partner to hand off the barbell so you can keep that retracted position. Do that and you’ll not only eliminate all shoulder pain but you’ll also be able to press more. That’s one of the reasons you see power lifters arch their back.
