Is decline bench a meme?

>>42127629
yes it's useless

Everything is a meme on this board

>>42127629
I asked my dad and he told me "whats a meme?"

>>42127629
Just do dips, man.

BB bench is a meme. DB is objectively better for chest development and shoulder health.

At least there's always a free bar on that bench so I can do OHP anytime.

>if you fail a rep you are almost guaranteed to severly injure yourself and/or die

stupid useless exercise

What's a better alternative?

Only do flat/incline bench

At my gym only old grey hairs do decline bench. Makes them feel like they can still do 2 pl8.

dips

Flat bench is a meme

Incline + decline is the patrician alpha high test combo

This

Better on your shoulders

yeah like you know anything about shoulder mechanics

>EMG studies show that the decline bench press (at a minimal angle i.e 15-20 degrees) actually activates more total chest muscle than other angles. Not only that, but there is a lot less pressure on the anterior deltoid seriously reducing chance of injury and less irritation for already damaged shoulders.

its a meme alright. dont do them 4chan dyels

it's for clueless pussies who want to fool themselves into thinking that they're better at bench pressing than they actually are.

If you want to train the pecks then do flyes in a machine. No compound exercise can work the chest as well. Im not a fan of machines, but when it comes to pecs, its the best.
