Offset Chest Press
The offset chest press is a great way to incorporate stability with a chest exercise. Using the TRX Rip bar puts more resistance on your core than doing the single arm stabilized chest press.
Primary Muscles Used
Offset Chest Press Instructions
- Use the TRX Rip Trainer and choose a band that is medium-heavy to heavy for you.
- Anchor at chest height
- Grab the RIP Trainer with your hands about shoulder width apart, the way you would for a bench press.
- Step out away from the anchor so your back is facing the anchor and the anchor point is even with the center of your back.
- Starting with your arms out in front of you at chest height, slowly bring the bar back towards the center of your chest so the middle of the RIP bar is even with your centerline.
- While keeping your stomach tight, press the bar straight out in front of you until your arms are straight.
- Pause and squeeze your chest.
- Repeat.
Tim's list of benefits for the Offset Chest Press
- You get a lot of torque on your torso during this exercise, it is really great for increasing stability.
- With the TRX Rip trainer, the angle of the pull is further out, making the torque greater, so this exercise can be much more challenging than the single arm chest press.
