Basic Olympic Decline Bench Press — Legend Fitness (3109)

Legend Fitness 3109 Basic Olympic Decline Bench Press – What are the benefits of performing decline chest presses? Compared to flat benching, the decline press can put less stress on the shoulders and lower back while increasing pec activation by minimizing rotation of the shoulder. There are many coaches and athletes that believe that the decline bench press has more potential in building a thicker, stronger chest than the holy grail of all chest building exercises, the flat bench press. Many weight lifters will incorporate the decline into their flat and incline benching to make sure they are stimulating every last muscle fiber in the pecs. Theres no question that whether you are performing the decline bench press for better sports performance on the field or to simply add strength and lean muscle to your upper body, the decline press is an exercise that should be performed regularly.

What are some of the most important Olympic Decline Bench features? Some lifters prefer to perform their decline bench pressing with a wide grip. To insure the ability to accommodate these wide benchers, a decline Olympic weightlifting bench must be built with the widest possible uprights. The Legend 3109 accomplishes this with a 49 wide footprint which equates to an inside gripping area of 43. Perhaps the most important feature is an adjustable footpad that is used to hold the lifter firmly
in place keeping them from sliding down the bench during the lift. And of course, any decline weight bench worth its salt must be built to be rock solid and hold any amount of weight asked of it. Legend fabricates its frames using 3 x 3 x 11 gauge steel that is completely welded and arrives at your location ready to party.
