Decline Abdominal Reach Overview
This is an extraordinary exercise to develop core strength, enhance body balance, and strengthen the shoulders. It also provides better stability and mobility, positively affecting your fitness and daily routine. Along with the core formulation, it reinforces your oblique as well. Therefore, it must be a staple part of your fitness routine.
How to Do It
- Adjust the decline bench at 30 to 45 degrees. The higher the bench, the more challenging it will be.
- Place your head at the lowest end of the bench.
- To get in the starting position, place your hands together, point them at the ceiling, raising your shoulder blades slightly off the bench.
- Keeping your hands together, reach straight towards the ceiling as far as possible.
- Get back to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of reps.
Decline Abdominal Reach Tips
- Increase the intensity by including a dumbbell and pausing for two seconds at the top of the movement.
- Don’t let your shoulder blades get in contact with the bench throughout the movement.
