You may think a bench press is only a chest exercise, but you recruit many other muscles. You’re working your chest, triceps, shoulders and core. Make sure you keep your back flat against the bench, feet planted on the ground, and hands a little wider than shoulder width apart. Lower slowly, then blast it up. Keep your core tight throughout, and when you have trouble lifting it up, squeeze your glutes and push down with your legs (while pushing up). If your gym doesn’t have a barbell, you can use dumbbells.[/su_box]
