    Thanks for this. No one in CZcams actually teaches how to setup the flat dumbbell press. I usually kickback just like the incline variation, and it hurts my lower back when getting into position.

    • @arjaymartin563
      @arjaymartin563 Před rokem +3

      Exactly why I stopped doing it for now because I noticed that I roll my back while lifting the dumbbells on my shoulders.
      Right form: keep the dumbbells near the stomach so you don't need to lift it.

    Chris, after pushing the dumbbells up off your chest, to bring the dumbbells down, do you break at the elbows first before lowering the dumbbells or do you break at the elbows and bring the dumbbells down together at the same time? Thank you.

      Almost ruined my arm by not having a spotter on 40kgs. I was pretty confident because I can do 42 or 45kg with a spotter.
      The dumbbell went outward to my wrist so I bailed out and released the dumbbell.
      Injured my arm and stopped lifting for 2 weeks. Luckily, the doctor said I just strained my muscle on the tricep part. I'm now using 40kgs with a spotter 💀

    • @saipavan1950
      @saipavan1950 Před 10 měsíci +1

      This pressing movement targets chest(mainly) and also triceps and bit anterior delts. So as triceps also takeup some load they may feel painful afterworkout. (My first and second sessions of chest felt this way, my triceps were too weak at that time and hence i was unable to work my chest out but after that my triceps got accostumed and strong enough ). Try to improve tricep strength a bit and you will feel the difference.(its because weaker muscles get fatigued earlier than stronger ones thats the reason why you should not do tris before chest and biceps before back workout)

      You may have the mistake of using your shoulders forward to lift the weight.
      Arching your back and making sure your shoulders does not move forward while doing dumbbell presses shift the weight to your chest instead of the shoulders.
      Also make sure that you're feeling that mind muscle connection by squeezing your chest on every rep instead of just lifting the dumbbells forward
