How to Do an Incline Dumbbell Press
The bench press has long been considered the mainstay of upper-body strength. But there’s a case to be made for its under-appreciated cousin, the incline dumbbell bench press.
Both moves are known as pushing exercises which means you extend your arms in front of you under load or resistance, working primarily the chest muscles, and secondarily the shoulders and triceps.

What’s even better about the hand release push-up? Starting every rep from the ground increases the range of motion and reduces the use of momentum, which adds to the challenge and forces you to use more force to get back up into a high-plank at the end of every rep.
