Great video - I agree wholly. I see magazines and videos still showing bad forms and shoulder joint ripping calls for the fullest ROM and by that, they mean touch the chest then touch the sky. All that does is remove the tension off the muscle and onto the joints or bones.
One critique - I think you should have shown actual examples of correct form and technique using a real person on various machines or with free weights too. Part 3? for clarity?

I have enjoyed all your videos very much.They have helped me simplify my workout.Thanks!

Continued.. Results of nerve conduction tests showed slightly more activity in the upper pec during an incline press than with a flat or decline. This would indicate that an incline would stimulate the upper pec slightly more. Interestingly declines apparently did not show more nerve activity in the lower pec than did flat benching. This may be because during a flat bench the back is usually arched somewhat, almost creating a decline position anyway.
Of course other factors come in to play.

Great clip. I'm so sick of idiots in the gym claiming that they can separately train the inner and outer pec. This mythology was perpetuated by a bloody fool called Joe Weider. As you have stated, the upper and lower pec can be targeted with different angles to some degree and therefore theoretically change the shape of your pec.
I read in a Poloquin article where some scientists did nerve conduction tests on the pectorals during incline, decline, and flat benching..

Ah, no. Is that what came through on the video?

So, is the Machine Chest Press with a Hammer Grip the most recommended exercise for the Chest? Or are you saying that all three exercises in the videos are okay?

@crons79 They're all OK, if you understand the underlying biomechanics. But a quick answer is, the machine chest press with the vertical grip is the simplest and safest.

I wouldn't take the results of one study too seriously; fitness studies are notorious for starting with low subject numbers, and then some drop out. As far as more electrical activity indicating more stimulation, ok, but after six months of only inclines, do you think you'll see a differently shaped pec? I don't. But, that aside, incorporating incline chest work into your routine won't really create problems, as long as you observe the same guidelines for protecting the shoulder.
