Lift the dumbbells over your chest by extending your arms. Maintain a slight bend in your elbows. Keep your hips and shoulders flat on the bench and your feet on the floor. Lower the dumbbells to the sides of your body in an arc-like motion. At the lowest point, your bent elbows should be on a horizontal plane even with the bench. Slowly bring the weights back up over your chest in an arc. The bend in your elbows should stay the same throughout the exercise. Exercise description by Bodybuilding.com (less) |

Keep the movement slow, about 1.5 to 2 seconds in each direction. On the way down do not let the weight stack touch, but stop just before and then go into the next repetition. Do not lock your elbows on the way out. Pick a weight that challenges you but that you can keep perfect technique throughout. Exercise description by Hugo Saner. (less) |
