Tubing: Chest Press
-
Walk out until tubing is pre-stretched with hands back near shoulders in starting position so you have constant resistance throughout exercise.
-
Place feet in "split stance" with one foot further out than the other. Using a split stance will enable you to keep an upright position without being pulled backwards towards tubing attachment point.
-
With a slight forward lean and straight wrists, press tubing out in front of shoulders. Keep shoulders back as you press handles forward so you don't round your back.
-
Repeat. Make sure to alternate the split stance lead leg so you don't always favor the same side.
Tips: The key with this one is the split stance
so you can anchor yourself to the ground better along with the forward lean
to keep you from being pulled back.
-
I don't use the tubing much for chest press, but if you don't have free weights or desire push ups, tubing will do the job.
