Exercise Description

The incline dumbbell twist fly targets your upper chest while adding a rotation that hits different muscle fibers. It builds chest width and definition better than regular flies.

How To

1. Set an incline bench to 30-45 degrees and grab a dumbbell in each hand 2. Lie back with arms extended above your chest, palms facing each other 3. Lower the weights out to your sides in a wide arc while rotating your wrists so palms face down 4. Feel the stretch in your chest, then reverse the movement back to start position 5. Rotate your wrists back so palms face each other as you complete each incline dumbbell twist fly rep

Form Tips

• Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the entire incline dumbbell twist fly movement • Control the weight on the way down - don't let gravity take over • Stop when your arms are parallel to the floor to protect your shoulders • Squeeze your chest muscles hard at the top of each rep

Common Mistakes

• Going too heavy and turning the incline dumbbell twist fly into a pressing movement instead of a fly • Dropping the weights too low and risking shoulder injury • Rushing through reps without feeling the incline dumbbell twist fly stretch in your chest
