The Dumbbell Chest Press is a popular and effective upper body exercise that primarily targets the chest muscles, as well as the shoulders and triceps. It is a compound movement that helps to develop strength, size, and definition in the chest region, making it a fundamental exercise in many strength training and bodybuilding routines.
Let's get started by moving forward in your chair and leaning back so you are at an angle. then grab both your dumbbells and curl them up, by bending at the elbows until the hands are at shoulder height with your palms facing forward and the elbows out to the side.
This is the starting position.
From here press one of them upwards until your arm is almost locked out, or as far as you can.
Once done, return the dumbbell back safely to the shoulder and repeat the movement on the opposite arm. Once you have done both arms this is one repetition, now repeat this for the desired amount.
If you have limited gripping ability try using the Active Hands Gripping Aids to make this exercise as safe as possible.
