Tips: Works the rear deltoids. Set an incline bench at the lowest possible angle. Then, with a dumbbell in each hand, lie face down on the bench so that the top of the bench is supporting your chest. Extend your arms in front of you so that they are perpendicular to the angle of the bench. Your palms should be facing each other and your elbows should be slightly bent. Maintaining the slight bend in your elbows, lift the weights by pulling your arms apart in an arcing motion. Think about trying to squeeze your shoulder blades together. Continue moving your elbows up until the dumbbells are at either side of your head. Slowly return to the starting position.
