i Instructions

  1. 1. Starting position: Set the bench to a 30-degree incline. Lie back securely, holding the dumbbell in one hand. Keep your free hand on your hip or by your side for balance.
  2. 2. Eccentric phase: Lower the dumbbell slowly toward your chest, keeping your elbow at a 45-60 degree angle relative to your torso.
  3. 3. Concentric phase: Press the dumbbell upward dynamically until your arm is nearly extended, avoiding full lockout at the elbow joint.
  4. 4. Breathing and safety: Inhale while lowering the weight and exhale during the press. Maintain core tension to resist the rotational force created by the unilateral load.
