Exercise description

Starting position: Lie on a bench with a positive slant. Lift the barbells. Position your shoulders shoulder width apart, perpendicular to the floor. Tighten your shoulder blades, with your shoulders as low as possible and pressed against the bench. Turn your wrists so that your thumbs are facing each other. Movement: maintaining the correct starting position, slowly lower the barbells near the centre of your chest, taking an inhale as you lower. Then begin to press the weight, and at the final stage of the movement exhale. At the highest point, stop the movement for a fraction of a second, then start lowering the dumbbells combined with an inhalation. Avoid overstretching the elbow joint. Repeat the exercise a set number of times at a suitable pace.
