This unilateral version of the bench press builds strength and stability while challenging your core.
Instructions
- Lie on a flat bench holding one dumbbell above your chest, with your other arm resting at your side or helping to guide the weight into place.
- Rotate your wrist so the palm faces away from your body.
- Slowly lower the dumbbell to your side as you inhale, keeping control throughout.
- Press the weight back up as you exhale, locking out your arm and squeezing your chest.
- Complete the set, then switch arms and repeat.
