Dumbbell Incline Press
Here are the steps to perform a dumbbell incline press exercise:
- Set an adjustable bench to a 30-45 degree incline.
- Sit on the bench with your feet flat on the floor and your back against the bench.
- Hold a dumbbell in each hand with your palms facing forward and your elbows bent at a 90-degree angle.
- Inhale and press the dumbbells up towards the ceiling, extending your arms fully.
- Pause for a moment at the top of the movement, then exhale and slowly lower the dumbbells back down to the starting position.
- Keep your elbows tucked in and your wrists straight throughout the exercise.
- Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
It is important to maintain proper form throughout the exercise to avoid injury and maximize the effectiveness of the workout. Keep your back against the bench, engage your core, and avoid using momentum to lift the weight. Additionally, make sure to use a weight that is appropriate for your fitness level and gradually increase the weight as you become stronger.
