Looking for the best weight to lose some weight while lifting/dieting/cardio. I wrestled and lifted in from 3rd grade to a junior in High School, but it's been awhile and now I'm fat. I want to get back down to my lean lean self.

I was around 180-190, but now I'm at 250-260 6'2''.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

Wondering if Flat Bench Press is worthless compared to Decline Bench Press or Incline Press?

What would you say is the best chest workouts and in what order if any?

Hi Raynor, I just wanted to make sure the plan I'm following is the right one for my situation.

I'm 24, 6'2'' and sitting at around 200 pounds (20% body fat). My BMR is at 2100cal. I want to drop to around 180-190pounds and drop to the 12-15% bodyfat area.

By slowly adding weight to ANY exercises will make you stronger in those particular areas. However, all routines should be changed periodically to maximize gains. Every 4-8 months, it's good to start a new routine all together. If you've been doing this for over a year, it would be time to switch things up. If you're looking primarily for adding strength, try this:

Actually, the consensus is now that incline press only engages around 10% more upper chest than flat bench. Turns out that seated military press engages much more upper chest than standard incline bench. That isn't to say that incline press is bad, it's actually quite good, but looking at incline/decline/flat as superior/inferior to one another is an improper notion.

Decline bench is excellent for lower chest, and building additional bench power.

Incline bench is excellent for supporting muscles, slight increases to upper chest, and lat/deltoid improvement when used with chest.

Flat bench is excellent for overall chest, as it covers the widest area of the chest most efficiently.

You will lose fat rapidly on that plan, however, once you hit the 180-190 lb area, you will need to adjust your calories to around 3,000 on workout days, and 2,500 on non-workout days to maintain that weight.

1,600 is extremely low and will not work for very long.

This plan will probably yield a 20 lb decrease in approximately 6 weeks.
