Instructions
Preparation
- Kneel over side of bench with arm and leg to side. Grasp
dumbbell.
Execution
- Pull dumbbell up out to side with upper arm perpendicular
to trunk until upper arm is just beyond horizontal. Lower and
repeat.
Comments
- If upper arm travels closer than perpendicular to trunk,
latissimus dorsi
becomes involved. Elbow should be raised directly lateral to
shoulder. Positioning torso at 45° is not sufficient angle
to target rear deltoids. Keep torso bent over approximately horizontal.
Much lighter resistance is required as Dumbbell
Bent-over Row.
