Dumbbells Bench Press Inclined Tips

  1. Start with a warm-up set using lighter dumbbells to activate your chest and shoulder muscles.
  2. Position the bench at a 30-45 degree incline to target the upper chest and shoulders more effectively.
  3. Keep your feet flat on the floor and maintain a stable position throughout the exercise.
  4. Grip the dumbbells with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart, to engage your chest muscles better.
  5. Lower the dumbbells slowly and controlled, allowing your elbows to form a 90-degree angle.
  6. Push the dumbbells back up explosively, focusing on squeezing your chest muscles at the top of the movement.
  7. Remember to breathe out as you press the dumbbells up and breathe in as you lower them down.
