How to do it

Keep your chest flat against the bench throughout each repetition.

  1. 1

    Lie prone (face down) on a special bench that allows your arms to hang freely, holding a dumbbell in each hand.

  2. 2

    With thumbs pointed up and arms slightly bent, lift your arms diagonally out to the sides until they are level with your shoulders.

  3. 3

    Hold the position briefly, then lower your arms back to the starting position.

  4. 4

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your head and neck in a neutral position by looking down at the floor, to avoid neck strain.
