HOW TO DO HAMMER PRESS

HAMMER PRESS - BENEFITS

The hammer press, performed with dumbbells, offers a range of benefits, particularly for targeting the inner chest muscles. Here's why it's a valuable addition to your workout routine:

1. Isolation of Inner Chest Muscles:

   • The hammer press effectively isolates the inner chest muscles, providing a focused contraction in this area. This targeted approach helps to stimulate muscle growth and development specifically in the inner chest region.

2. Enhanced Inner-Pec Development:

   • By emphasizing the press movement pattern and directing the force towards the inner chest, the hammer press promotes enhanced development of the inner pecs. This can contribute to a more balanced and defined chest appearance.

3. Variation for Muscle Emphasis:

   • Unlike traditional chest press exercises, the hammer press allows for a unique hand position that emphasizes the inner chest. By using a neutral grip with dumbbells, you can effectively target this area and achieve greater muscle activation.

4. Increased Range of Motion:

   • The hammer press typically allows for a greater range of motion compared to other chest press variations. This extended range of motion can lead to greater muscle activation and development, particularly in the inner chest muscles.

5. Versatility in Training:

   • Incorporating the hammer press into your workout routine adds versatility and diversity to your chest training regimen. It provides an alternative movement pattern that complements traditional chest exercises, allowing for a well-rounded approach to chest muscle development.
