Incline Dumbbell Incline

Lie down on an incline bench as shown, holding a dumbbell in each hand. Hands are pressed to the body at the top of the thighs. The palms are facing each other. As soon as you lie down, move the dumbbells in front of you shoulder width apart. The wrists are turned so that the palms are facing each other, the arms are perpendicular to the floor and fully extended upwards. This will be your starting position. Bend your elbows slightly to avoid overstretching your biceps. As you inhale, lower your arms in a wide arc to either side of you until you feel a stretch in your chest muscles. Tip: keep in mind that during this exercise, the arms remain motionless, and the movement is performed only in the shoulder joint. As you exhale, return your hands to their original position along the same trajectory, tighten your chest. Lock your hands in the starting position, after a second pause. Complete the required number of repetitions. Variations: You can rotate your wrists so that your palms are facing forward.
