With a dumbbell in each hand, sit down on a decline bench. Position your feet under the pad and hold two dumbbells on your lap as you slowly lower your back on the bench. Be sure that your back is flat on the bench and raise the dumbbells above your chest until the arms are straight. With your palms facing away from the face, inhale as you lower the dumbbells and bend the elbows, following a straight line, until the arms make a 90 degree angle. The back of the arm should be parallel with the floor. Exhale as you press the weights up to the starting position, following the same route. Be sure to concentrate on the path which the dumbbells follow during the exercise.
