Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
Deep push-ups with dumbbells target the chest, shoulders, and arms, enhancing upper body strength and stability. By elevating the hands on dumbbells, a greater range of motion is achieved, intensifying muscle engagement and activation, especially in the chest muscles.
How to do it
- Place a pair of dumbbells shoulder-width apart on the floor.
- Grip the dumbbells and assume a push-up position with your body straight.
- Lower your chest between the dumbbells until you achieve a full range of motion.
- Push back up to the starting position by extending your arms.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps while maintaining a straight body alignment.
