I would like to know what the main differences are between floor presses and pin presses in the power rack obviously with the same range of movement.
Floor presses takes the lats and the leg drive out of the movement as it is nearly impossible to use these muscles when laying on the floor.
Another exercise for the exercise index this is the floor press.
The floor press develops the same muscles as the bench press the pecs triceps and anterior shoulder.

How to perform it.
While most bodybuilders and strength athletes today will use the bench press for the majority of chest training the floor press used to be the gold standard.
Your feet can either be flat on the floor or legs can be extended straight out.
Board presses are more bench specific as the leg drive and arch i your back is the same thus allowing for more lat involvement.
Try both and find out.
The floor bench press is exactly what you think it is the bench press while on the floor basically the reverse motion of a push up but it is so much more than that.
Give this a try and let.
