CHEST

Dumbbell Incline Bench Press

IntermediateDumbbell

An incline press with dumbbells that works the chest with extra emphasis on the upper portion, plus the shoulders and triceps. Dumbbells add instability a barbell doesn't, forcing each arm to work on its own and pulling in your stabilizers. A strong builder for upper-chest thickness and pressing control.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Lie back on an incline bench set to 45 to 60 degrees, squeeze your shoulder blades together, and plant your feet.

  2. 2

    Keep your head, shoulders, and hips in contact with the bench at all times.

  3. 3

    Hold the dumbbells just outside shoulder-width.

  4. 4

    Brace your core by breathing into your stomach and tightening your abs.

  5. 5

    Press the dumbbells up until your arms are fully extended over your shoulders, keeping your elbows about 45 degrees from your torso.

  6. 6

    Lower the dumbbells back down under control and repeat, keeping the load moderate for stability.
