Dumbbell Bent-Arm Pullover with Knees Bent

The bent-arm pullover lying along a bench with the knees up and the feet on it; the flat lower back keeps the stretch in the chest and lats.

How to do it

Setup

Lying along a bench, knees bent, feet on it, one bell over the chest in both hands, elbows bent.

Steps

Lower the bell behind the head, elbows keeping their bend.
Stop when the upper arms reach ear level.
Pull it back over the chest with the same bent arms.

Common mistakes

Opening and closing the elbows: the bend stays fixed. Lower back lifting off the bench: keep it flat. Dropping the bell far behind the head: stop at a comfortable stretch.

Breathing

Deep inhale lowering behind the head, exhale pulling over.
