Exercise Description

The reverse grip dumbbell squeeze press builds tricep strength while hitting your chest. The reverse grip puts more stress on your triceps than regular pressing.

How To

1. Lie flat on a bench holding two dumbbells with palms facing your feet (reverse grip) 2. Press the dumbbells together firmly and hold this squeeze throughout the entire reverse grip dumbbell squeeze press movement 3. Start with arms extended above your chest, dumbbells touching and squeezed tight 4. Lower the squeezed dumbbells down to your chest while keeping them pressed together 5. Press back up to starting position, maintaining the squeeze between dumbbells the whole time

Form Tips

• Keep constant pressure between the dumbbells - this squeeze is what makes the reverse grip dumbbell squeeze press work • Your palms should face toward your feet throughout the entire movement • Lower slowly and controlled, don't let the dumbbells bounce off your chest • Keep your core tight and feet flat on the floor for stability

Common Mistakes

• Losing the squeeze between dumbbells during the reverse grip dumbbell squeeze press - this kills the exercise benefits • Using too much weight and losing proper reverse grip form • Pressing too fast and not controlling the negative portion of the movement
