Dumbbell Alternate Chest Press on Stability Ball

The dumbbell press on a ball one arm at a time, the other bell held up; the shifting load makes the hips fight to stay level.

How to do it

Setup

Upper back on the ball, hips up, both bells pressed up over the chest.

Steps

  1. Lower one bell to the chest while the other stays up.
  2. Drive it back up to meet the top bell.
  3. Switch arms each rep, hips level throughout.

Common mistakes

Ball rolling toward the working side: wide feet, tight glutes. The top arm drifting: keep it locked over the shoulder. Rushing the switch: one press ends before the next begins.

Breathing

Inhale lowering, exhale pressing.
