how is it that ever since i ascended my face i stopped feeling the need to compensate by lifting man made metal up and down

Decline press or deep chest dips + incline or guillotine press + flyes/pec deck = complete chest development. You can do decline pressing in any decent decline press machine or whatever, all good, flat bench is OK but overrated even for lower pecs. Actually I think flat bench is better for upper + middle pecs than it is for lower pecs truly, contrary to some popular beliefs.

Also flyes and pec deck you can adjust angle/height and where you place your arms to shift more bias to upper pecs a bit more if you want to.

Thing is gymceling is more effective the better your face is, physique halo gets stronger the hotter you already are!! It is really OP like that.

Know what else is overrated? Guys doing incline bench press ONLY. LMFAO.. nice way to get lagging lower pecs. Throw in at least 1-2 sets of decline press or even dip machine to failure after or some shit. Upper chest is good but you need big lower pecs to really have a chest that pops and mogs in clothes.

Any guy that does incline only would have even better lower pecs if they did this.

One of the best pec exercises possibe + best lower pec exercise on earth. Great for the deep lengthened stretch work on upper pecs too. Combine with incline or guillotine type pressing + finish with some pec deck or flyes to failure = complete FULL chest development routine. So fucking easy and effective way to cap out your chest gains.
