Starting Position
- pick up a dumbbell with each hand
- then you lay down with your back on the floor
- also put your arms (triceps side) on the ground
- your forearms are vertically to the ground
- bend the legs and place the feet on the ground to stabilize the position
- the palms of the hands point to the knees
Correct Execution
- push the dumbbells up with strength
- now the weights are arranged above your chest, your arms are almost fully stretched
- do not let the weights wander above your head
- head and back (avoid hollow-back) stay stable in a line and do not leave the ground
- hold the dumbbells up for an instant
- then let the weights sink down slowly until the upper arms are on the ground again
- repeat the movement of the dumbbell exercise several times
