This is a shoulder-friendly version of the incline press. The neutral grip helps you push harder with less joint stress.
Instructions
- Sit on an incline bench with a dumbbell in each hand, resting them on your thighs.
- Kick the dumbbells into position near your shoulders, palms facing each other.
- Press both weights upward until your arms are straight and the dumbbells meet at the top.
- Lower them slowly back to the starting position, keeping control through the full range.
