Forget push-ups — this 5 move dumbbell workout builds your chest and a strong upper body

A woman on a gym bench performing dumbbell chest press.

Our chest muscles come into play everyday, whether that be trying to nail a set of push ups, pushing a door open, or carrying your groceries in from the car. Incorporating strength building exercises for your chest muscles into your fitness regime is a good idea and we've found an excellent dumbbell routine to get you started.

You might be thinking that you'll need a bench to perform this chest workout but all you need is a pair of the best adjustable dumbbells or a standard pair of dumbbells and something soft to place between the ground and your back for added support, such as one of the best yoga mats.
