Instructions

  1. Lie flat on an exercise bench holding a dumbbell in each hand with your arms extended straight up over your chest, palms facing each other.

  2. Keep your upper arms completely stationary and bend at the elbows to lower the dumbbells slowly toward your ears.

  3. Pause for a brief moment at the bottom of the movement while feeling a deep stretch in the back of your arms.

  4. Press the weights back up to the starting position by extending your elbows fully without locking them out.
