how often do you guys do decline benchpress

depends...i switch it up alot...i used to do it about 1x per month....now it varies, been doing more flat and reverse grip....i like 2 switch it up.... wish i could do dips, but they really f up my shoulders, so do more reverse grip bench instead of dips

once or twice a month.

 

[TPH76]

For the current scedule..once a week (10x10) for a period of 6 weeks.

Normally twice a month.

Every week, baby! Pro bbers do them every week, and so do I. If you want overall symetry in your pecs then you gotta do them at least every other week.

Although I love them, I must admit this statement is a little bit of a stretch.

Yes, every week. Lots of symmetry...

I know theres a study on just about everything, but I've seen several that say the chest gets the most stimulation out of decline dumbells. I love decline.

Why dont you guys do decline?

For me it simply comes down to the fact that I think my effort/time is more efficiently spent utilizing other exercises. That's all.

Not very often it is fun to throw weight around on. When i was stacking tren test i was repping 315 for 5 on decline at the end of my workout.

you might of wanted to wait till you could rep 315 paused flat bench till you started that tren/test stack.jumped the gun a bit didn't ya.

 

[Phil9999]

I can do 315 flat bench w a pause no problem. I got short arms bench comes really natural to me.

never.....decline is an ego booster, IMO. i see guys who can barely bench 135 put like high 200s and think they are the shit.

all shoulders, also IMO

 

[MANOWAR]

Unfortunatley I was one of these people

Depends on the person. Personally, I use more chest on decline than on any other angle. I tend to let my delts come into play too much on incline and flat.
