REFERENCE EXERCISES USING A WEIGHT BENCH

LEG CURLS

CONCENTRATION CURLS

How to do them – Sit on the side of the weight bench and sit with your knees apart. Bring your elbow down to your knee joint and position it so it sits securely on the side of your patella. With your wrist fixed, straight and facing outward towards your opposite leg, curl your forearm all the way up and back down, in a controlled manner.

What muscles they target – Biceps.

How a weight bench helps – By locking your arm into place using your knees, you optimise your bicep curls so they’re much more concise. A weight bench is a solid, flat surface for you to work out on.

DUMBBELL SHOULDER PRESS

How to do them – With the bench in an upright position, sit with your back firmly pressed into the weight bench. Ground your feet firmly into the ground and bring your arms up so your elbows are at right angles, and your shoulders are in line with your back. With a smooth, controlled motion, push the dumbbells up and in so that they meet when your arms are straight. Lower back down and take back into your starting position.

What muscles they target – Deltoids, supraspinatus, triceps, trapezius, pecs.

How a weight bench helps – The weight bench stops your arms from moving out of line so you can be much more precise when you work out. However, by allowing you to move naturally, the weight bench isn’t as constrictive as a resistance machine.

SKULL CRUSHERS (LYING TRICEP EXTENSIONS)

How to do them – With the bench in a flat position, lie back as you would for a bench press. Take the dumbbell so it’s positioned above your head. Hex weights are great for this exercise as you can hold on to the rubber weight securely. Ensure your elbows are tucked in so you can target your triceps. Then, keeping your arms bent, lift the weight up and over until your elbows meet

What muscles they target – Triceps.

How a weight bench helps – Provides a solid, flat base for you to train from.

DUMBBELL ROW

How to do them – Stand to the side of the weight bench with the closest knee to the bench resting on the seat. Bend over and support your weight with the arm that’s closest to the bench, keeping it straight. With your outside arm, bring the weight up so you thumb meets your armpit. Squeeze your back muscles as you reach the top, then lower back down.
