Instructions

Preparation
Lie chest down on elevated bench. Grasp dumbbells below.

Execution
Keeping upper arm perpendicular to torso and dumbbells just below elbows, pull dumbbells up until elbows are just above shoulders. Return and repeat.

Comments
If upper arm travels closer than perpendicular to trunk, latissimus dorsi becomes involved. Bench should be horizontal and be high enough to prevent dumbbells from hitting floor.
