3 Things to Include:
✅Tilting Dumbbells Upwards
✅Full Extension / Squeeze
✅Shoulders Rotated Back

🚨 Alternating Dumbbell Press

🎯Target Muscles: Mid Chest, Front Delts, Triceps

3 Things to Avoid:
❌Elbows Too Wide- This is a topic of debate, but having elbows completely straight out will create more strain on your front delts. This is not the ideal position for a heavy compound exercise.

[wp_ad_camp_4]
❌Feet Unstable- Not keeping feet grounded will limit balance and core / leg engagement resulting in less powerful reps.
❌Fast, Uncontrolled Reps- Without a full squeeze up top and a controlled negative, you are not activating the same amount of muscle fibers and will not build the same quality of muscle.

3 Things to Include:
✅Elbows Neutral- Keeping elbows slightly tucked will keep the strain off of your front delts and help prevent injury.
✅Feet Planted- Having a solid base generates the most power.
✅Slow, Controlled Reps- Increasing time under tension will result in more muscle fibers being activated and an overall better workout.
