An Australian study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research showed that when weight - trained subjects performed incline bench presses, the muscle activity of their upper pecs was only around 5 % greater than the upper pec activity during a flat bench press, which is kind of a shocking discovery considering the status that the incline bench press has enjoyed up until now.

Also, look for a way to emphasize the long head by placing your arms in a more overhead position during other exercises — for example, when performing skullcrushers or close - grip bench presses, opt for an incline bench instead of a flat one.
