Dumbbell incline shoulder raise is a moderate exercise. It trains chest.
Detailed explanation
Set an incline bench to a 45-degree angle and sit on it with a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing down. Rest the dumbbells on your thighs and lean back onto the bench. Use your thighs to help raise the dumbbells to shoulder height, then rotate your wrists so that your palms are facing forward.
Exhale and slowly raise the dumbbells above your head, keeping a slight bend in your elbows. Pause for a moment at the top, then inhale and slowly lower the dumbbells back to shoulder height.
