Dumbbell Incline Neutral Grip Bench Press
A step-by-step form guide from the Ægir Iron exercise library: how to do the lift, what to watch for, and the muscles it trains.
- Equipment
- Dumbbell
HOW TO PERFORM
- Set the bench to about 30 degrees and lie back with a dumbbell in each hand and the feet planted on the floor.
- Pull the shoulder blades down and together and hold the dumbbells over the chest, palms facing each other.
- Lower them to the sides of the upper chest with the elbows close to the body, then press back up until the arms are straight.
FORM TIPS
- Facing the palms in keeps the elbows tucked, which suits shoulders that dislike a wide press.
