LANCE BUMGARNER: Now, I will be demonstrating how to do an isolateral decline press. Right here, we have an isolateral decline press machine. Seat height is very important, making sure that your hands are even with your chest as you press out. This machine is going to be working your chest, your shoulders and your triceps. Take a seat on the machine, making sure that your hands are even with your chest, feet firmly on the floor, back nice and flushed with the back pad. Exhale as you press out; inhale as you return. Make sure you maintain proper form, keeping everything nice and in control. This is an isolateral movement. You can train each chest individually or you can train the chest at the same time. Return back to the starting position, exit the machine. This is the isolateral decline chest press machine working your chest, your shoulders and your triceps. Just remember a few key points: keep your feet firmly planted on the floor; your back nice and flush with the back pad; making sure that your hands are even with your chest; making sure that you control the weights on the way out, control the weights on the return; maintain proper form.
