Easy Exercise of the Week: Incline Dumbbell Flyes

Eric Lalor

A great exercise to develeop the chest and pecs.

Instructions:

  • Hold a dumbbell in each hand and lie on an incline bench that is set to an incline angle of no more than 30 degrees.
  • Extend your arms above you with a slight bend at the elbows.
  • Rotate your wrists so that the palms of your hands are facing you.
  • As you breathe in, start to slowly lower the arms to the side while keeping the arms extended and while rotating the wrists until the palms of the hand are facing each other. At the end of the movement the arms should be by your side with the palms facing the ceiling.
  • As you exhale start to bring the dumbbells back up to the starting position by reversing the motion and rotating the hands so that the pinky fingers are next to each other again.
