Two Bar Incline Press "Machine"... this is a very effective setup especially for home gym trainers with limited space (obviously if you train in a busy gym, the setup might be prohibitive).

It basically creates a simple "bottom start" machine out of a couple of bars. It's a machine with relatively freely-moving "arms" that don't fully lock your joints into position but also move up and back in an effective pressing arc for the upper chest fibers.

The weight is well-stabilized so you can focus on upper chest activation and the bar orientation creates a neutral grip which can be easier on the shoulders.

** IMPORTANT! When loading and unloading the bottom ends of the bars, the plates may slide, so be aware they could slide off if you don't keep them from doing so.

Then all you have to do is press. You can do these bottom start by releasing tension at the bottom of every rep, or you can keep the bars off the bottom rail and keep the tension on.
