Dumbbell close-grip press

How to do it

1. 1Sit on a flat bench with a dumbbell in each hand, resting on your thighs.
2. 2Using your thighs to help hoist the dumbbells, lift them one at a time so you can hold them in front of you at shoulder height.
3. 3Once at shoulder height, rotate your wrists forward so your palms face away from you.
4. 4This will be your starting position.
5. 5As you inhale, slowly lower the dumbbells to your side until they are roughly at chest height.
6. 6As you exhale, use your triceps to press the dumbbells back up to the starting position.
7. 7Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
