How to Spoto Press

Spoto Press gif

Spoto Press muscles worked: Chest

Form

  1. 1. Slowly lower the bar and stop a few centimeters above your chest (keeping it from touching your chest).
  2. 2. Hold that position for about 1 second while maintaining tension in your chest and arms.
  3. 3. Push the bar back up with your chest strength to return to the starting position.
  4. 4. Repeat in the same rhythm without any bouncing.

Coach's Comment

  1. 1. Do not use rebound in the stopping phase; rely solely on muscle strength.
  2. 2. Instead of being greedy for weight, start with a manageable load that you can control.
  3. 3. Keep your core tight to prevent excessive bending of the back, and if possible, work with a spotter.

Coach's Comment

  1. 1. If you can't lower the dumbbell to chest height, please lower it as much as you can without straining.
  2. 2. Be careful not to let your shoulders come forward of your chest, as this can put strain on your shoulders.
