Dumbbell Chest Hollow Body Press
Master the ultimate core and chest crossover. This move forces intense abdominal engagement while you build pressing power, ensuring a rock-solid midline and a stronger upper body.
Instructions
Setup
Lie flat on your back on a yoga mat.
Hold a dumbbell in each hand with your arms bent and elbows close to the floor.
The Hollow Hold
Simultaneously lift your shoulders and your straight legs a few inches off the ground.
Keep your lower back pressed firmly into the mat, core tightly engaged, to maintain the hold.
The Movement
While maintaining the hollow hold position, press both dumbbells upward toward the ceiling, extending your arms fully.
Slowly lower the weights with control back to the starting position with your elbows near the floor.
Continue the rhythmic pressing motion while holding your body in the elevated hollow, bracing your core throughout.
