Functional Movement of the Week 💪 Every week we will share a simple, exercise movement that you can do at home, in the gym or on the go! This week: Chest Press
Chest presses are an important strength-training exercise that help build and maintain a strong, healthy physique. They primarily target the chest muscles (pectorals), while also engaging the shoulders and triceps. This movement supports upper body strength, which is essential for daily activities like pushing, lifting, and carrying.
By consistently performing chest presses, you can improve muscle definition, boost upper body endurance, and enhance overall posture and stability. They also contribute to better muscle balance when paired with back exercises, helping to prevent injuries and maintain joint health. Whether done with dumbbells, a barbell, or machines, chest presses are a key exercise for developing upper body strength and supporting total body fitness 🏋
