Sit on an incline bench and lock your feet flat on the floor. Grasp a dumbbell in each hand with the palms facing outward. Your elbows should be slightly bent and the dumbbells should be above your lower chest almost touching each other. This is your starting position. Slowly lower the dumbbells in an arc until they are out at your sides. Inhale during this movement. Allow your shoulders to stretch out and down as much as possible, ensuring a good range of motion for the exercise. Bring the dumbbells in an arc towards each other above your lower chest. Your arms should rotate upwards and your shoulders should hunch forward and up. Maintain a constant slight bend in the elbows. When the dumbbells touch, your arms should be pointed straight up, palms away from each other. Exhale during this movement. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.

The chest is composed of the Pectoralis Major and the Pectoralis Minor. The Pec Major attaches to the upper arm and pulls the upper arm across the chest. The Pec Minor lies mostly underneath the Pec Major and draws the shoulder blade down and forward.
