Incline Static Hold

Hold Position:

• Lower the dumbbells a few inches above your chest — about the midpoint of a normal incline press.
• This is where your upper chest is under maximum tension.

Static Hold:

• Hold the position for 20–45 seconds while keeping the chest tight.
• Breathe slowly but stay tense — do not relax your chest or shoulders.

End the set:

• After the hold, carefully bring the dumbbells down and rest.
