If your upper chest is lagging it's usually not because you're not doing enough upper chest work. Or rather, you're most likely training with exercises that place more "emphasis" on the upper chest, however your form is off and your mind-muscle connection to that area is poor because of it.
Also, keep in mind that when you train with the FLAT BENCH exercise you're still activating the entire pectoralis major. But if you are only benching once a week, another part of your issue of having a lagging chest could very well be that you are simply not hitting your chest enough times throughout the week.
So in today's video I wanted to tackle two very important factors.
1. Teach you how to drive more mind-muscle connection to the upper chest.
2. Correct your form on the incline bench to ensure you are not bringing your shoulders into the movement and taking activation away from the chest.
Quick tips like these are what really help take your workouts to the next level. So be sure to comment below what exercises you would like to see next and I will share with you more tips and tricks to maximize them!
In the meantime, if you need a new program that takes advantage of multiple growth periods (hitting the same muscle group a few times a week), then check out FULL BODY EVOLUTION! It's an upper/lower split that you train with multiple times a week and will be a great transitional program for those of you currently training with bro-splits!
