How to do it

  1. Set the bench to about 30° and press the dumbbells up over your upper chest, palms facing each other.
  2. Keep a slight bend in your elbows and hold that angle throughout.
  3. Lower the dumbbells out to the sides in a wide arc until you feel a stretch in your upper chest.
  4. Bring them back up along the same arc, squeezing your chest at the top.

Warm up first and pick a weight you can control through the whole movement. Stop if something hurts.
