Instructions:
- 1Lie on a flat bench holding two dumbbells directly above your chest with your palms facing each other
- 2Lower the weights in an arc out to your sides until you feel a stretch across your chest
- 3Return the weights to the original position by bringing the weights back together above your chest
- 4Keep your arms slightly bent throughout the whole movement
- 5Repeat for the desired number of reps
Tips:
- Keep your back firmly against the bench to maintain proper form
- Lower the weights only until your upper arms are about parallel to the floor to prevent shoulder strain
- Don't rush the movements. Control the weights as you lower and raise them
- Exhale as you lift the weights, inhale as you lower them
