Exercise: Alternating Dumbbell Incline

  Print This Page  Send to a Friend

• Position body on incline bench and hold dumbbells at shoulder level
• Drive right dumbbell toward ceiling until arm is straight
• Lower with control; repeat with left arm
• Repeat in alternating fashion

Sets/Reps: 2x10 each arm
Benefits: Upper-body strength
Manson: We like to superset a lot of things; we pair a primary muscle with the antagonist muscle. That means we alternate push and pull movements. So after we pull with the Chin-Ups, we go right away to the push with the Dumbbell Incline.
Cochran: When we pair the push and pull exercises, the guys keep moving just like on the court. They are pushing and pulling on each other, then they go up for a shot or a dunk, and then they have to run. They never stop.
