The alternate dumbbell bench press exercise is a chest exercise that also challenges the stabilization muscles of the core and shoulders.
By keeping one weight elevated during the alternate dumbbell bench press, you keep constant tension on the shoulder and pec. By alternating each rep, you also force your core to stabilize your body on the bench to complete each rep.
Be sure to start with the weaker side of your chest when performing alternate dumbbell bench press. This exercise is a great way to challenge yourself if you are used to perform dumbbell bench press only.
