Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
The kettlebell lying on floor chest press is a strength exercise targeting the chest muscles, particularly effective for developing upper body strength. By lying on the floor, it prevents excessive shoulder extension, making it safer for the shoulder joints while effectively engaging the pectorals and triceps.
How to do it
- Lie on your back with knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
- Hold a kettlebell in each hand, with arms bent and elbows resting on the floor.
- Press the kettlebells upward until your arms are fully extended.
- Slowly lower back to the starting position with control.
- Repeat for desired repetitions while keeping core engaged.
