The incline cable chest press is a variation of the incline bench press used to target the muscles of the chest. In particular, the incline used in the incline cable chest press helps one target the upper chest to a greater degree.
Cables are an excellent tool to use to keep constant tension on the working muscles, as seen in the incline cable chest press. This constant tension increases the total time under tension of the working muscle and (when programmed appropriately) can help lead to better muscle gains.
