The One Arm Twisting Chest Press exercise is a unilateral movement that targets the chest, shoulders, and triceps. This exercise also engages the core muscles and helps improve stability and balance.
How to perform
To perform the One Arm Twisting Chest Press exercise, follow these step by step instructions:1. Start by lying on a flat bench with a dumbbell in one hand. The dumbbell should be positioned directly above your chest with your arm fully extended.
2. Press the dumbbell up towards the ceiling, keeping your arm straight and your core engaged.
3. As you reach the top of the movement, rotate your wrist so that your palm faces away from you.
4. Slowly lower the dumbbell back down to the starting position, making sure to keep your core tight and your shoulder blades retracted.
5. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions on one side before switching to the other arm.
To perform the exercise correctly and safely, it is important to maintain proper form throughout the movement. Keep your elbows slightly bent to avoid putting excessive strain on the joints, and avoid arching your back or lifting your hips off the bench. Make sure to use a weight that challenges you without compromising your form.
Equipment required
Band
Band equipment consists of elastic bands or tubes that provide resistance during exercises. They are commonly used to strengthen and tone muscles, improve flexibility, and increase range of motion. Bands are versatile and can be used for a variety of exercises targeting different muscle groups, making them suitable for strength training, rehabilitation, and physical therapy. The resistance levels can be adjusted based on the tension of the band, allowing for progressive overload and customization for individual fitness levels.
