How To Do Dumbbell Bench Press Correctly

[@georgewilkie3580]

As a Yank not very familiar with Mr. Hanrahan, I must say that I have never seen a better Dumbbell Bench Press tutorial in my 51 Years of Weight Training! Mr. Hanrahan covery Every facet of the Biomechanics involved with the DB Bench Press. His instructions are clear, concise, and to the point. Obviously, this British Gentleman Knows of what he speaks. My sincere THANK YOU to Mr. Hanrahan for adding to my knowledge of the DB Bench Press ... BRAVO!

This is absolutely the BEST tutorial on benching I have ever seen. And now I know I've been doing it wrong all this time and can correct my form and avoid shoulder pain (which I have had in the past and now know why!). The way you presented, explained and produced this video is all top-notch. Keep them coming!

[@jonmcgill533]

Hey Jack, Fantastic video. Best how to video I have seen, your instruction is second to none. As a 67yr old and someone who trains at home I find the videos a great learning tool. Thanks for all your hard work.👍💪

Thank you, I'm 67, your teaching examples are right on target. Young people he's explaing reps properly. Keep up your expertise. Thanks

[@atanasatanasov8650]

I'm amused how comprehensive you explain the whole process and preparation for the execution of the exercise with every little detail covered. I had watched a lot of those video and I think I never watched better one than yours. I'm following you now and expect more videos with other types of exercises. 😊

[@BenoîtLefebvre-z3w]

I appreciate how you broke down the common mistakes. It really helps to visualize what to avoid.

[@morganlam3408]

Great explanations! I've told to "break the bar" when bench pressing but never understood why.. now I do. Thanks

[@TimeFlyingBy1884]

Best dumbbell bench press tutorial on KZbin. Attention to every little detail. Thank you so much!!

[@KM-hk8tc]

Would be awesome for a whole series of exercises with dumbbells - shoulders, biceps, etc.

[@iaygun]

As a 58 year old new to strength training, thank you for this tutorial. Really and truly helpful.

[@RickEmmines]

Man this content is superb. The details and level of engagement and professionalism you come across with is incredible. For years I’ve been looking for trustworthy, justified explanations of technique like this. More content like this will shoot this channel to another level I’m sure. Very impressive.

[@irajasivadas4413]

As a 75 year old who injured his pecs lifting wrong with too much weight, I love this video. Lifting half the amount of weight I did before correctly and seeing results!

[@awanishverma-uz3kx]

Respect to you for lifting wieghts at 75

[@QGDeclined]

Great video, I'm just beginning my dumbbell journey and this was very clear and helpful. Perfect amount of explanation and detail, with no wasted time - love it!

[@FloofusTheCat]

I’ve been doing these wrong for a very long time. I’ve consistently felt it in my shoulders and just thought that was how it was supposed to be. Can’t wait to work on form tomorrow.

[@ronaldbaglien3457]

This is one of the best DB chest press tutorials I've seen. Great work.

[@vanessawirz6385]

Finally, I found a video that explains exercises easy to understand. As I train at home with dumbbells, those how-to videos are a great resource. I hope to see more videos of this kind in the future.

[@FloridaGator1-r4s]

The real-time demo was super helpful. I feel more confident trying this out now.

[@ayushvyas3401]

NGL this has to be the best tutorial on this exercise out here

[@_Taipo]

I'd say the best exercise tutorial i've ever seen

[@SAMNANGPOV-w8h]

How much does each of dumbbells weigh?

[@johnhendricks8140]

Great tips on body mechanics

[@justadude7516]

Man I’m getting back into it after a 6 year hiatus and these videos are awesome. I’m thankful for your passion to pass on the knowledge keep it up!

[@turntablesrockmyworld9315]

Great video! I'll only add that as a guy in his fifties, 3-45 degree inclined bench is much easier on shoulders I find as well as maintain arch while pressing lower back to bench. L5-S1 issues so "fuller" arch is painful!

[@toicest]

Indeed Jack is Jacked.. Thanks for the video. ..for an amateur like me, definitely learned today something new and useful.

[@Schnarchnase]

7:00 I actually understand how to do the "shoulder thing" now. Thank you for that visual!

I have lifted more than 56 years. I always pushed my dumbbell inline up and down. This warmed up my chest, back and shoulder prior to barbell bench. I did not believe in placing dumbbells on angle.

Very useful. Thank you

More of these please

[@ricardohernandez1481]

Thank you! Just what I needed. The cue to screw the arms makes much more sense to me than just retract shoulders down and back. Two questions 1) do you advise keeping scapula pulled tight or let them move? 2) noticed you lower your arms parallel to your body. I’ve heard it said that you get more muscle growth from full range of motion. Do you advise against going below parallel? Personally, when I try to go further it hurts my shoulder but curious about your thoughts on this.

[@akshobhyasharma2750]

Are these tips the same for incline dumbell press?

[@nemonucliosis]

Yes, but dont go more than 45 degree on a bench if you're trying to hit upper chest do because you'll activate more front delt. 20 to 35 is all you need.

[@akshobhyasharma2750]

​@@nemonucliosis thanks

[@twinklingstar3372]

Great Presentation. I found the correct fitness channel. Well done.

[@muthushun]

Very good detailed explanation....

[@aaronricks6490]

I love the breathing technique . I'm definitely going to try this.

[@bflo5210]

Interesting info.... the "screwing your arms into the bench" might be my missing link... I'm assuming this technique is the same for incline dumbbell press too?

[@1Better-mq9ec]

You must be a new channel but with this much expertise I'm sure you'll blow up real soon! Good luck and keep up the good work!
