Subject: The ultimate "beach body" exercise...chest, abs, arms...
The version of the dumbbell bench press I'm going to show you here today is the ULTIMATE beach body exercise.
The Back-Off-Bench Press is a unique movement for the chest that LOOKS like a standard dumbbell bench press...until you look a little closer. You'll be doing the bench press with your upper back hanging off the end of the bench.
And while it is true that you'll be forced to use less weight than in a normal bench press, I found this technique basically FORCED the pecs into continuous tension. I got a GREAT pump using lighter dumbbells and hit the core at the same time (and especially the rectus abdominus six-pack muscles).
This exercise is really the ideal beach body exercise...chest, abs and arms all in one shot :)
Don't let that "beach body" thing fool you, though...this exercise is VERY tough and very valuable.
