The smith incline reverse grip press is a chest exercise performed on a smith machine with an incline bench. It targets the pectoral muscles using a reverse (underhand) grip, which also engages the tricep and shoulders. The smith machine provides stability, but the reverse grip and incline angle require good coordination and some experience.
