Lever Decline Chest Press

How to Do:

1. Setup Adjust the seat on the lever chest press machine so that the handles are aligned with the lower part of your chest or upper stomach when seated. Sit down and grip the handles with your palms facing forward.
2. Body Position Place your feet firmly on the footrests or the floor to ensure a stable position. Keep your back flat against the backrest and your shoulders retracted, engaging your core for stability.
3. Starting Position With a firm grip on the handles, push them slightly forward to create tension in the machine. Your elbows should be at a 90-degree angle or slightly more open, with the handles at chest level.
4. Press the Handles Push the handles forward in a controlled manner, extending your arms without locking your elbows. Keep the movement smooth and steady, focusing on engaging your chest muscles throughout.
5. Slowly Return Gradually bend your elbows to lower the handles back toward your chest, controlling the movement to maximize muscle engagement.
6. Repeat Perform the desired number of repetitions, ensuring proper form is maintained throughout each rep.
