Instructions
Set an incline bench near 45 degrees. Sit with a dumbbell on each thigh, then guide the weights into position as you lie back.
Plant your feet and keep your head, upper back and hips supported. Hold the dumbbells above your torso with palms facing each other and elbows tucked.
Bring the dumbbells together and actively squeeze them against each other throughout each repetition.
Press upward until your arms straighten while maintaining the inward squeeze.
Lower slowly toward your chest with elbows tucked, keeping both dumbbells level and touching.
Repeat without bouncing. Finish by bringing the weights to your thighs as you sit up, then set them down under control.
