ok:

1. This should be in the training section.

2. Couldn't really undertsand a word you were saying, but I will attempt to answer what I think you were saying! :)

Decline bench is not dangerous at all if done correctly. It's an excellent variation of the standard bench press with a little more empahsis on the lower pec area. It can be done as often as you would do any of the other bench press variants, and you should not bring it down to your face under any circumstances. Bring it down to around your nipple, maybe a little above. As with any bench - probably a good idea to have a spotter especially if using max weight!

Hope that was the answer you were looking for!

I think you're asking about how it affects the shoulder joint (impingement, a/c joint problems, etc.). I've found that whenever flat bench has hurt, I've been able to continue with decline bench pain-free. If you've been having shoulder problems, ask a physiotherapist. If you get one that tells you not to lift, find a new one. I found one that used to be a physio for rugby, so she knew I'd be lifting anyway. She suggested neutral grip dumbbell presses, and having my arms about 60 degrees away from my body instead of 90.

hey man try and contribute a little bit...
yeah like rocky said nipple line push straight up and down as for the "dangers" you speak of i would like to comment on lying down in the bench during your rest sets...DONT or you'll get a headfull of blood!
i would only do it every now and then as gravity tends to pull things down and overdeveloped chest in the lower pec will make you look like you've got tits
not that ive seen anyone with overdeveloped lower pecs but you'd have to be pretty spastc to do JUST decline press...
