The Dumbbell One Arm Reverse Grip Press is an exercise that targets the chest, shoulders, and triceps. The reverse grip (palms facing towards you) places more emphasis on the upper chest and front deltoids.
How to perform
To perform the Dumbbell One Arm Reverse Grip Press, follow these step-by-step instructions:1. Sit on a flat bench with a dumbbell in one hand and feet firmly planted on the ground.
2. Hold the dumbbell with an overhand grip (palm facing towards you) at shoulder level.
3. Take a deep breath, brace your core, and press the dumbbell up towards the ceiling, while rotating your wrist so that your palm is facing away from you.
4. Pause at the top of the movement, ensuring that your arm is fully extended but not locked out.
5. Slowly lower the dumbbell back to starting position while maintaining control.
6. Repeat for the desired number of reps, then switch sides and perform the exercise with the other arm.
Remember to keep your core engaged throughout the exercise and focus on controlling the weight with your chest and shoulder muscles. It is important to use proper form and avoid swinging or using momentum to lift the weight. Start with a light weight to ensure you are performing the exercise correctly before gradually increasing the weight as you become more comfortable with the movement.
