Exercise Description

The one arm dumbbell fly builds chest strength and size while improving stability. It targets each side separately to fix muscle imbalances and create better chest definition.

How To

1. Lie on a bench holding one dumbbell above your chest with arm slightly bent 2. Lower the weight out to your side in a wide arc, keeping that slight bend in your elbow 3. Feel a good stretch in your chest, then reverse the motion to bring the dumbbell back up 4. Complete all reps with one arm before switching to the other side for the one arm dumbbell fly 5. Keep your core tight and maintain control throughout the entire one arm dumbbell fly movement

Form Tips

• Keep a slight bend in your elbow throughout the entire one arm dumbbell fly - never lock it straight • Move the weight in a smooth arc, not straight up and down like a press • Don't let the weight drop below chest level to protect your shoulder • Keep your opposite hand on your hip or chest for balance during the one arm dumbbell fly

Common Mistakes

• Using too much weight and losing control of the one arm dumbbell fly movement • Bending the elbow too much, turning it into a press instead of a fly • Lowering the weight too far and risking shoulder injury during the one arm dumbbell fly
