How to do it
- Set the bench to about 30° and sit with the dumbbells on your thighs, then lie back.
- Pinch your shoulder blades together and plant your feet.
- Press the dumbbells up over your upper chest until your arms are straight.
- Lower slowly until your elbows are just below the bench.
Watch out: A bench set too steep, which shifts the work to your shoulders.
