Alternating Swiss-Ball Dumbbell Chest Press for Men

Alternating Swiss-Ball Dumbbell Chest Press

Grab a pair of dumbbells and lie on your back on a Swiss ball. Raise your hips so that your body forms a straight line from your knees to your shoulders. Your palms should be facing out, but turned slightly inward.
Without changing the angle of your hands, lower the left dumbbell to the side of your chest. Pause, then press the weight back up to the starting position as quickly as you can while lowering the other dumbbell. Continue lifting the dumbbells one at a time in an alternating fashion.
