How to perform Dumbbell Reverse Fly with proper form
Starting Position:
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart or sit on the edge of a bench.
- Hold a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing each other.
- Hinge at the hips, bending forward while keeping your back straight.
- Let the dumbbells hang straight down from your shoulders.
Execution:
- Engage Core: Maintain a neutral spine and engage your core for stability.
- Raise Dumbbells: With a slight bend in your elbows, lift the dumbbells out to the side until they are in line with your shoulders.
- Control Movement: Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together at the top of the movement.
- Lower Weights: Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout.
Breathing:
- Exhale as you lift the dumbbells.
- Inhale as you lower them back down.
Tips:
- Keep movements smooth and controlled to prevent momentum.
- Avoid lifting weights that are too heavy; focus on form over weight.
- Keep your neck relaxed and avoid shrugging your shoulders.
