EXERCISE INSTRUCTION
- Feet shoulder-width apart. Then bend your knees slightly.
- The back must be tilted forward so that it is at an angle of 30 °.
- The back should be kept straight, and the lower back should be slightly bent.
- When pulling two dumbbells in an incline, you do not need to raise your head and bend your neck.
- At the starting point of the amplitude, the dumbbells should be at shoulder level.
- The top point of the amplitude is when the elbows point straight up. At the top point, you need to pause for a second, and then slowly lower the weight.
- You need to lower the dumbbells as low as possible, this will help stretch the back muscles.
- Inhale is done at the lowest point of the amplitude, and exhale when pulling dumbbells to the lower back.
NOTE: You can change the angle of the back. The more the slope, the more the rhomboid and broadest muscles work, and the less the slope, the more the muscles of the upper back are involved.
