Dumbbell One Arm Side Lying Bench Press

Expert Advice

Keep your elbow at a 45-degree angle from your body to maximize chest engagement and reduce shoulder strain.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Lie on your side on a flat bench with your legs stacked and knees slightly bent for stability.
  2. Hold a dumbbell in your top hand with your arm extended upwards, palm facing forward.
  3. Lower the dumbbell slowly towards your side until your elbow is just below the bench level.
  4. Press the dumbbell back up to the starting position, focusing on using your chest muscles.
  5. Complete the desired number of reps before switching sides.
