How to Do Dumbbell Bench Press to Incline on Ball With Single Leg

The flat dumbbell press to incline on the ball with a single leg should begin with a good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.

If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the flat dumbbell press to incline on the ball with a single leg.
