How to do the incline chest press exercise using a wide-grip on Hammer Strength machine:
Adjust the seat to your desired level and add the appropriate weight plates that you wish to use.
In the seated position, grab the handles and push away from you as far as you can go without locking your elbows, in other words, the elbows should be slightly bent and the arms should not be completely straight.
Now bring back the handles to complete the movement with your elbows just slightly behind your back and shoulders.
Very important, remember to breathe because it is an integral aspect of weight training for both the body and the mind and with regards to how much you will be able to press. As you press outwards (as you push the handles away from you) breathe out and breathe in as you bring the handles back towards your chest.
Do about 12 repetitions or as many as you can do if you are using very heaving weights. Do about 4 to 5 sets.
Variation: Close-grip incline chest press on Hammer Strength with greater incline angle.
