How to do it

  1. Set an incline bench to about 30° between two pulleys at their lowest position, take a handle in each hand and lie back.
  2. Bring the handles up over your upper chest with your palms facing each other and a slight bend in your elbows.
  3. Open your arms in a wide arc until you feel a stretch in your upper chest, keeping the elbow bend fixed.
  4. Bring the handles back up along the same arc and squeeze your chest as they meet over your upper chest.

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