Chest Press (Alternating)



Target Muscles:



Chest, Shoulders, Triceps

How To:

• Rest head, neck, and shoulders on stability ball, feet wide and flat on ground, and dumbbell in each hand

• Bend arms so upper arm is parallel with ground

• With you right arm, drive the dumbbell up toward the ceiling until your arm is straight

• Slowly lower back down to the start position

• Repeat with left arm

Important: Make sure you keep the weights directly over your chest. Don’t let them drift up toward you neck. Don’t let the dumbbell of the arm that is “resting” drift lower than parallel to the ground. Resist the urge to hold the dumbbells with a death grip...you should be able to wiggle your fingers
