Instructions
Grasp a pair of dumbbells with palms forward, actively contract the upper back and lats by bringing the shoulders down and back. Keep the chest high, the feet pressed into the ground and lower back slightly arched so a hand could slide under it throughout the entire movement. Keeping the wrists straight, press the dumbbells straight up while maintaining the elbows at a 45 degree angle. Lower the dumbbells under control back to the starting position. Common Errors: Excessively arching the lower back, raising hips off of the bench and not keeping shoulders set in place.
