The steep incline press is one of Matt Wenningβs favorite upper-body warm-up exercises but only on occasion !!! it prepares the shoulders to press while keeping the load light and controlled. Performed for high reps as part of the Wenning Warm-Up, it increases blood flow, improves work capacity, and reinforces proper pressing mechanics without creating fatigue before your main lift. The Wenning Warm-Up emphasizes General Physical Preparedness (GPP) to build healthier joints, stronger connective tissue, and better long-term performance.
Whether youβre bench pressing, overhead pressing, or training for football, powerlifting, or general strength, the steep incline press is an excellent way to get your shoulders ready to perform.
