Dumbbell Decline Bench Lunge
The decline bench lunge holding dumbbells at the sides; they are easier to set down than a bar if the foot slips.
How to do it
Setup
Dumbbells at the sides, front foot on the decline bench's pad, rear foot on the floor.
Steps
- Plant the front foot flat on the pad.
- Sink the back knee, bells hanging straight.
- Drive up through the front foot.
Common mistakes
Bells swinging into the bench: hold them still at the sides. Front heel sliding down the slope: shoes with grip, foot set flat. Torso leaning over the front knee: stay tall.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
