Your pectorals are the prime mover in chest press, but it's a compound movement so you've got triceps, deltoids and muscles in your upper back all working together help in the movement either by assisting the lift or stabilising you during the lift. Make sure you work the muscle from all angles as well eg. incline, flat and decline as these recruit the muscles differently.badversion wrote: And which muscle helps to increase chest press?
I do agree with you on the declines. Can't say I do them myself, but worth knowing about.Boss Man wrote: Declines are okay, but the main ones are Flat benching as a priority, inclines probably as a secondary consideration and declines if you want, but otherwise omit them.
