      I found that 30 degrees hurt my shoulder joints unless I was having extreme leg drive and bringing my ass off the bench. So I leave the bench at 30, but put a 2.5kg plate under the front leg. This doesn’t hurt my shoulders at all and I feel a great pump in my upper chest, which has allowed me to progres in strength. The smallest change can make the biggest difference.
