Dumbbell Decline Chest Press on Bench

This exercise will utilize an isometric glute bridge hold on a bench in order to create a declined angle instead of using a decline bench. You can do these on the floor as well, but you will not get the full range of motion on the chest press and will instead be doing a floor press. Sit at the edge of your bench with your dumbbells resting on your thighs. Use a knee pop to bring the dumbbells to your chest as you lower your back into position until you are laying on the bench. Press the dumbbells towards the ceiling until the arms are locked out before lifting your legs off the floor and onto the bench. Push through your heels to get into a glute bridge position with your heels directly under your knees and your shoulders, hips, and knees in a straight line. Maintain this position while you chest press the dumbbells for the desired reps. When finished, put your feet back on the ground and use that momentum to sit up and take your rest.
