FitCi
Step-by-step
- Lie on your back on the floor, bend your knees, and keep your feet flat on the floor.
- Hold the dumbbells at chest level with your palms facing your feet.
- Lower your upper arms under control until they touch the floor, keeping your elbows at about a 45-degree angle.
- Once your elbows briefly touch the floor, press the weights back up.
- Squeeze your chest at the top without fully locking your elbows.
- Repeat the movement smoothly.
Coaching tip
Lower until your elbows touch the floor; a limited range of motion that is triceps- and shoulder-friendly.
Caution
Skip this move or ask a professional first if you have pain or an injury in: elbow. FitCi filters it out of your program automatically based on the injuries in your profile.
