Instructions
Setup
Place a dumbbell on the floor next to an exercise bench.
Set the bench to a slight incline.
Place one hand on the incline of the bench for sturdy support and lean your torso forward until it is nearly parallel to the floor. Keep your back straight and core braced.
Movement
Allow your arm holding the dumbbell to hang straight down toward the floor.
Pull the dumbbell upward by driving your elbow toward the ceiling, keeping your arm close to your torso.
Squeeze your shoulder blade toward the center of your back at the top of the movement.
Lower the dumbbell slowly back to the starting position with control.
