  • Dumbbell
  • Bench
Pattern and target
  • Pull
  • Upper
  • Back

How to do it

  1. Lie along a bench or across it with the shoulders supported, holding one dumbbell in both hands over your chest.
  2. Keeping the elbows slightly bent and fixed, take the dumbbell back over your head until you feel the lats stretch.
  3. Pull it back over the chest with the lats rather than the arms, ribs staying down.
  4. Go only as far back as you can without the lower back arching. Lighter is better here than heavier.
