It kind of looks like he is trying to lower it closer to his chin/neck area rather than the upper pecs. I rember he mentioned it in one of his MD columns that he uses that technique for his flat benches.

He is one strong dude alright. I trained with him about 6 weeks ago. he did 15 reps with 155 pound dumbells on flat press. Yes he also had us lower the bar down to our neck instead of the chest area on the presses.

I think that video was taken from one of the Battle for the Olympia videos - 95 or 96 I think. Cormier was at the top of his game then and could incline even more than that - he's done 495 for an easy double.

He's controlling it well but he does the opposite part of the movement to someone like Branch. Funny really, they both have very good chests. More than one way to skin a cat I guess.

Youtube should clean their site from all these geeks who are uploading their gym stuff.
