Double your chest growth

In this episode of the Lift Podcast, Harry reveals how most lifters are training their upper chest wrong—and how a simple grip change or equipment tweak can dramatically boost growth. If you’ve been stuck with slow chest gains, this one small shift in execution could double your results. 🔑 Key Takeaways: 🧠 1. Upper Chest = Shoulder Flexion The main function of the upper chest is shoulder flexion (arms overhead), not adduction (arms toward midline). Most incline pressing doesn’t emphasize this properly. 🛠️ 2. Use a Neutral Grip Tucking elbows and using a neutral grip (palms facing you) targets the upper chest better. This naturally shifts the movement toward more shoulder flexion. 🏋️ 3. Best Exercise Swaps Best: Incline chest press machine with neutral grip. Next Best: Shoulder press machine leaned back with neutral grip. Do this at least once a week for noticeable results. 📅 4. Weekly Chest Strategy Example Day 1: Chest fly Day 2: Incline press (neutral grip) Day 3: Flat chest press (neutral grip) This setup covers all regions of the chest effectively. 🔁 5. Train by Function, Not Just Angle Don't obsess over incline degrees—train the muscle by its function. Just one adjustment per week can lead to major gains.
