Muscles Trained: Primarily lower chest. Secondarily
mid chest, shoulders, and triceps.
Intro: The decline dumbbell press is very similar
to the other DB related chest presses. The difference remains in
that the bench you use is on a decline level and the spot where
you lower the weight on your body.
How it is performed: Approach the decline bench,
which should be se at around 30 degrees. Personal preference will
always vary that final judgment. Since this is done on a decline,
a spotter is usually a nice thing to have to get the dumbbells into
starting position. Start the dumbbells in line with your shoulders.
Use the information mentioned in the other dumbbell press exercises
as guidelines for the lift. Always use a controlled motion and do
not sacrifice form for weight.
