INCLINE DUMBELL PRESSES

Re: INCLINE DUMBELL PRESSES

last night on incline db I warmed up with 45'sx20....70'sx20.....105x5.....my next set was the 130's I was ready to smash my old record of 25reps....but it didn't happen I failed at 22.......When I do dumbbell presses my palms face each other and my arms are close to my sides not flared out. Does anyone else press like this??
