nope false do it with no weight and squeeze your chest flex it and look where you get best contraction at top of triangle.Originally posted by dna9488 View PostThanks for your input. I was told by a few people not to do the triangle thing because it puts pressure on your shoulders and eliminates tension on your chest.

you guys keep saying shoulders, but my shoulders aren't sore nor remotely being engaged. I always feel my chest, especially the upper pecs and middle chest. The only time I feel my shoulders being kicked in is flat bench. I get a pump in my shoulders more than my chest.

put your arm straight out like if you were doing flat bench and flex. feel all that stuff see how it hits shoulders.
now do same thing but move your arm in like top of triangle now feel your shoulder. all relaxed correct and see how much harded you can contract your chest.

Everybody has their own style of what works best for them Dna. I agree w Rocket to much incline but if its working and you getting the results then so be it. One thing about db's is you can turn your wrist's say palms in or you can go thumbs in. I get a little more stretch w thumbs in but usually lighter weight as well. Maybe give that a try might help you.

With the triangle, my chest doesn't contract as much, with them straight out there is more of a contraction.Originally posted by ROCKETW19 View Postput your arm straight out like if you were doing flat bench and flex. feel all that stuff see how it hits shoulders.

I'll wait until my chest isn't sore to to do this. I'll make another video Monday July 30.
