Instructions:
- 1Lie back on a decline bench with a dumbbell in each hand at arms length, palms facing each other
- 2Lower your arms out at both sides in a wide arc until you feel a stretch in your chest
- 3Return your arms back to the starting position as you squeeze your chest muscles
- 4Hold at the contracted position for a second and then start coming down slowly
Tips:
- Keep elbows slightly bent during the whole movement to prevent stress at the biceps tendon
- Avoid using a weight that's too heavy to maintain proper form
- Always have a spotter when using heavy weights to avoid injury
- Inhale as you perform this movement, exhale while returning to the starting position
