render.py --export bundles the 25 new motion rigs and info pages; figure-fixtures.json regenerated for all 47 (the Swift solver reproduces every new motion, including negative-y pins and the new prop uses). The fixture count assertion moves to 47, and the no-bundled-motion test now uses Treadmill - a permanent COVERAGE.md exclusion - since Bench Press exists. 48 tests green; watch target builds. Coverage handoff complete - TODO-coverage.md retired. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJDQQDA9QdP8zByg43H5v3

# Incline Bench Press
|
||
|
||
The barbell press on the tilted bench — same press, aimed at the upper
|
||
chest.
|
||
|
||
- **Category:** Main circuit
|
||
- **Type:** Free-weight incline press
|
||
- **Targets:** Upper chest, front delts, triceps
|
||
- **Prescription:** 3 × 8–10
|
||
|
||
## Setup
|
||
|
||
Set the bench to a moderate incline (around 30–45°). Lie back with the
|
||
bar over the eyes, shoulder blades set, feet planted.
|
||
|
||
## Execution
|
||
|
||
1. Lower the bar to the upper chest, just below the collarbones.
|
||
2. Touch lightly, keeping the forearms vertical.
|
||
3. Press straight up to lockout above the shoulders.
|
||
|
||
## Cues
|
||
|
||
- The steeper the bench, the more shoulder and less chest.
|
||
- Ribcage up, but hips stay on the pad.
|
||
- Bar path is a straight vertical line on the incline.
|
||
|
||
## Common Mistakes
|
||
|
||
- Sliding the bar path out over the belly.
|
||
- Overarching to turn it back into a flat press.
|
||
- Grip too wide for the shorter incline stroke.
|
||
|
||
## Progression
|
||
|
||
Work up in weight after the flat Bench Press, not before it; dumbbells
|
||
on the same bench trade load for range.
