Instructions
Proper Position
- Set a bench to an incline of about 30-45 degrees.
- Lie face down on the bench, with your chest resting against the incline and your feet firmly planted on the floor.
- Hold a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other), arms extended downward perpendicular to the floor.
Movement
- Pull the dumbbells upward by bending your elbows and driving them backward.
- Squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement to maximize back contraction.
- Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position in a controlled manner, keeping tension in your back muscles.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Breathing
- Inhale as you lower the dumbbells.
- Exhale as you pull them upward.
