Exercise Description

The decline dumbbell chest fly builds your lower chest muscles and creates better chest shape. It stretches and strengthens your pecs for a fuller, more defined chest.

How To

1. Set the bench to a 15-30 degree decline and secure your feet at the top 2. Hold dumbbells above your chest with arms slightly bent, palms facing each other 3. Lower the weights in a wide arc until you feel a deep stretch in your chest 4. Squeeze your chest muscles and bring the decline dumbbell chest fly weights back together 5. Control the movement on both the way down and up during each decline dumbbell chest fly rep

Form Tips

• Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the entire decline dumbbell chest fly movement • Focus on squeezing your chest muscles, not your arms, to lift the weights • Don't let the weights drop too low - stop when you feel a good stretch • Keep your core tight and maintain the decline dumbbell chest fly position on the bench

Common Mistakes

• Bending your arms too much turns the decline dumbbell chest fly into a press movement • Dropping the weights too low puts dangerous stress on your shoulders • Using weights that are too heavy ruins your form during the decline dumbbell chest fly
