Chest Shoulder Press

The chest press is a classic upper-body strengthening exercise that works your pectorals (chest), deltoids (shoulders), and triceps (arms). For the best results and safety, it's essential that you use proper form and good technique.It involves lying on a bench and pressing weight upward using either a barbell or a pair of dumbbells. During a bench press, you lower the weight down to chest level and then press upwards while extending your arms. This movement is considered one repetition, or rep.It also works shoulder muscles such as the deltoid. This movement can be conducted with a chest press machine, with dumbbells, or even with a barbell if you want to perform the traditional bench press. You can also increase the angle of your bench to perform an incline chest press.
