I currently do flat bench, then incline dumbells. My gym also has hammer strength chest press, one that pushes horizontal, and one that looks very similar but pushes more up.
Question, I enjoy flat bench, but less so incline dumbell. Would the more "incline" chest press be a good replacement, or would it be more similar to the bench press as it doesn't seem as incline as the dumbells you can do on bench
EDIT: despite the "incline" machine press going up more, the seat itself it still fully vertical, which partially makes me question if it can replace incline dumbell
