Band Alternate Incline Chest Press

How to Do:

1. Setup Attach a resistance band to a sturdy structure at about elbow height. Attach handles to the band and position yourself so the anchor point is behind you. Hold one handle in each hand with your palms facing down.
2. Starting Position Step forward with one foot into a staggered stance for balance. Raise your hands to shoulder height, keeping your elbows bent at 90 degrees. Engage your core and lean slightly forward.
3. Press One Arm Extend one arm upward and forward at an angle, mimicking the motion of an incline chest press. Fully extend your arm without locking your elbow.
4. Alternate Arms Return the pressing arm to the starting position while simultaneously pressing forward and upward with the opposite arm. Maintain a controlled and fluid motion.
5. Repeat Alternate arms for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining tension in the band throughout the movement.

Benefits:

The Band Alternate Incline Chest Press targets the upper chest, shoulders, and triceps while engaging the core for stability. The alternating motion improves coordination and balance, making it an effective functional strength exercise. It is also a joint-friendly alternative to free weight pressing.
