Using a neutral grip (palms facing in) can help reduce stress on your shoulders while still providing a strong chest workout. This is a great variation for longevity and joint health.
Instructions
- Lie on a flat bench with a dumbbell in each hand and feet planted firmly.
- Hold the dumbbells over your chest with arms extended and palms facing each other.
- Lower the weights slowly until they reach your torso level.
- Press back up to the starting position while keeping your elbows close to your body.
