Decline DB Press
How to
Dumbbell- 1 Secure legs on a decline bench, dumbbells at the chest.
- 2 Press up until arms are nearly straight.
- 3 Lower slowly to the sides of the lower chest.
Tips
- Have a partner hand you the dumbbells, or bring them up one at a time before locking the legs.
- A slight decline, about 15°, is enough.
- Press in a small arc so the dumbbells finish over the lower chest.
Common mistakes
- Lowering the dumbbells toward the neck.
- Sitting up quickly between sets.
- A steep decline that shortens the press.
