1. Dumbbell bench press

Dumbbell bench press is a common training movement among dumbbell training movements. It is a classic action for training the pectoralis major muscles and has a very good effect on building the pectoralis major muscles. Dumbbell bench press is also divided into upright bench press, incline bench press and decline bench press. Different bench press movements also have certain differences in the exercise of the chest muscles. We can choose appropriate chest muscle exercises based on our personal needs.

2. Dumbbell fly

If you want to have strong chest muscles, you can try dumbbell fly training. It has a very obvious exercise effect on the middle seam and outer edge of the chest muscles. Regular training of dumbbell flyes can make our chest muscles look more three-dimensional and thicker. It is worth mentioning that before training dumbbell flyes, we must find a dumbbell weight that suits us. If you are a beginner bodybuilder, it is recommended to start training with the lightest dumbbell.

3. Dumbbell incline bench press

The decline dumbbell bench press is essentially another form of the dumbbell bench press. Like the first two methods, you also need to lie on your back when doing this movement, but the plane is changed to a decline bench. However, of all the bench press movements, this one is the most difficult to perform. Because it requires greater strength, there is a high probability that the brain will be congested when doing it. Therefore, when doing this action, be sure to choose dumbbells that suit you.
