I'm a horrible sleeper. Lol, I've been up since 3:30. Thank you! I'm going to try incline benching today! :D Pretty excited...

Yikes!! Yes you are! Lol ;) Yay that's exciting! Let me know how you like it! Incline is my weakest out if the 3!
 
I broke my incline bench plateau by adding in decline pushups (feet on a bench/step)

I use them as a warm-up, occasionally as an exhaustion set to failure to finish a chest session, or on a non-chest day just for active recovery

Active recovery is a firm belief of mine. I try to add a bodyweight exercise on the furthest off day from the target muscle workout. Get some bloodflow into the muscle and a decent pump but not damage it further.

Can't say anything other than results speak for themselves.

Take pride in your hard-earned progress and always keep your eyes on that end goal.

Great work
 
Awesome job!!! You look amazing! :D

Thank you! It's hard finding support in this lifestyle so when you do, you hold on tight and help everyone push forward.
