Bench press – We Heart Living

Bench press

The bench press is an upper-body compound exercise, meaning it works a whole muscle group, including the pectorals, triceps and anterior deltoids. Compound exercises take more energy to complete, which means they keep the heart rate up and as a result provide cardiovascular benefits, burn more calories and improve lean muscle mass, creating a sleeker-looking upper body. You should aim to complete 3 sets of 12 reps, ensuring you keep your movement controlled at all times.
