Do you follow Paul Carter at all? He cant seem to put shit together at a meet but his incline press is ridiculous. He does more incline work than flat bench.
Brick, if you can work up to a big incline bench then it's a safe bet that your flat bench, if you choose to go back to it, will be bigger also.

Oops sorryDo yo even compete?
I do incline bench every week, has a good carryover to my raw bench, i think you will lose some efficiency with the actual bench press movement, but a 4 week sheiko cycle would probably fix that quick smart.
If you can't bench without pain, can you use a close grip?
Here is a thought.
Would it be wise to do all forms of pushing (different planes) for a power lifter?
Seeing how tough flat benching can be on the shoulder
The closer to a meet the more emphasis on flat benching should be?
I gotta add I'm really weary about posting in this section these days lol.

I like this idea.
After trying all sorts of things for my flat bench, I think I'm just going to do overhead and incline predominantly and work on flat bench technique mainly.
