Chest Workout Day - 5 Chest Exercises You Must Do 

#2 Dumbbell Press

This compound exercise also targets the shoulders and triceps while activating the pectoral muscles in the chest region.

Instructions:

Step 1: Lie on a bench and hold dumbbells in both the hands with a pronated grip. The distance between the weights should approximately be equal to the width of the shoulders. The upper arms should be parallel to the ground while the forearms should be perpendicular to the body.

Step 2: Slowly lift the dumbbells by extending your arms and squeezing your chest. Keep your elbows close to the body while performing this exercise.

Step 3: Hold the position for a moment and return to the initial position.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tips: Vary the inclination angle of the bench to target different regions of the pectoral muscles. Do not drop the dumbbells while lowering them as it could lead to a rotator cuff injury.
