  1. Perform this exercise while lying with your back on the flat bench and your legs securely on the floor.
  2. Your arms should be fully extended (elbows soft) with your palms facing towards each other. The weight is suspended directly above your chest with the dumbbells almost touching.
  3. Pinch your shoulder blades together with your chest sticking out for the duration of the exercise.
  4. Lower the weight out to the side until your arms are parallel with the floor. Press the weight back up and consciously flex your chest muscles at the top.
