The dumbbells have a wider range of motion than the barbells, so they can target the muscles in more detail!
How to Decline Dumbbell Bench Press
Starting Position
1. Lie on the bench holding a dumbbell in both hands and keep your feet fixed on the floor.
2. Pull your shoulders back and hold them in place so that your shoulders are positioned behind your chest.
3. Make sure your lower back has a natural arch.
Proper Form
1. Slowly lower the dumbbell until it is next to your chest.
2. At this time, your forearm should be perpendicular to the floor.
3. Slowly lift the dumbbell back to the starting position.
Breathing Technique
Inhale while bending your arms, and exhale while pushing your arms.
Precautions
1. If you have high eye pressure, please substitute with other exercises.
2. If you cannot lower the dumbbells to chest height, please lower them as much as you can without straining.
3. Be careful not to let your shoulders come forward of your chest, as this can put strain on your shoulders.
4. Please be careful not to let your buttocks come off the bench.
