How to do it

  1. Lie on the floor with a dumbbell in each hand, arms straight over your chest, palms facing each other.
  2. Keep a slight fixed bend in your elbows.
  3. Lower both arms out to the sides until your upper arms touch the floor.
  4. Bring them back together over your chest.
  5. The floor caps the range before your shoulders reach end position - the safe way to fly without a bench.
