       TIPS:

Ø If dumbells are very heavy, must ensure a spotter person behind you(to avoid any accident).

Ø Motion, while lowering down the dumbells should be slow as compare to upward.

Ø To make this work out more effective for different muscles of chest, adjust different declination angles of the decline bench.

Ø Changing the declined bench angle helps you to hit the different muscles of chest a little differently with every single degree change.

Ø This exercise can also be performed with barbell and exercise bands.

Ø Don't try to increase the pace which may lead to bounce the dumbells on your chest.

Ø Make a full control on the dumbells during the whole exercise.

Ø Pace, while doing the exercise must be slow or medium.
