Subject: How to target your "inner" chest...(yes, it CAN be done)
If you want to fill out (or fill in!) your inner chest and get more "cleavage" of your pecs, you're going to love this exercise.
I call it the Tilted Dumbbell Bench Press.
The best part is, it uses very simple equipment (no machines)...just a decline bench and a dumbbell.
Now, there is always debate over whether you can actually target the "inner chest" area.
In my experience, however, when you adjust angles of tension the way you do in this exercise in particular, you absolutely CAN target specific aspects of a muscle, especially a complex muscle like the pectoralis major that covers a lot of area.
I'm not saying if you only did this exercise, you would build a big lump of muscle just in your inner chest...what I'm saying is you can put focused tension on muscle fibers in a specific location or orientation even though you're NOT excluding the other fibers of that muscle.
This focused tension is useful when you have less development in that specific aspect of the muscle because of your anatomy, biomechanics or past exercise selection.
Bottom line...if you want more complete chest development...use this exercise.
