How to: Lie on your back, with your knees bent and feet placed flat on the ground. Hold a dumbbell in each hand, and extend your arms upward, palms facing toward your feet. Slowly bend your arms and lower them to the side, parallel with your shoulders, until your elbows nearly touch the ground. Slowly reverse the movement and return to start. That’s one rep. Complete as many reps as possible in 50 seconds.

2. Chest Fly

Slowly reverse the movement and return to start. That’s one rep. Complete as many reps as possible in 50 seconds.

3. Inner Chest Press
