Decline Bench Press
The Decline Bench Press is a strength training exercise that targets the lower part of the pectoralis major muscle. It is performed on a bench that is angled downward, allowing the lifter to push the weight upward from a declined position. This variation emphasizes the lower chest and can help improve overall chest development.
To perform the decline bench press, the lifter lies on a bench set at a decline, securing their feet at the end. Using a barbell or dumbbells, they lower the weight to their chest and then press it back up. Proper form is essential to prevent injury and maximize effectiveness.
