Steps

  1. 1 Lie supine on a flat bench, holding a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip.
  2. 2 Bring the dumbbells together above your hips with your arms nearly straight.
  3. 3 Keeping your arms mostly straight, raise the dumbbells in an arc up over your chest and continue past your head until they are in line with your torso.
  4. 4 From this position, sweep the dumbbells out to the sides and down in a wide semicircle.
  5. 5 Continue the circular motion until the dumbbells meet again above your hips, returning to the starting position.
