Instructions:

  • 1Begin by lying down on a decline bench, holding a dumbbell in each hand, arms fully extended towards the ceiling
  • 2Slowly bend your elbows to lower the dumbbells towards your shoulders, keeping your elbows close to your body
  • 3Reverse the movement by straightening your arms, pushing the dumbbells back towards the ceiling
  • 4Make sure to maintain a solid grip on the dumbbells throughout the movement
  • 5Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions

Tips:

  • Avoid allowing your elbows to flare out as this can place unnecessary strain on your shoulder joints

  • Maintain a controlled pace during the movement, don't rush
  • Inhale as you lower the dumbbells, exhale as you push them upward
