For me this is one of my favorite exercises either at the beginning or end. It stretches the muscles AND gets you upper abs involved as well. An awesome total upper body stretcher and workout (Biceps, tris', shoulders, lats, upper abs and chest.) As a female I do drop sets from 35 lbs down to 10 lbs....+See More

Great exercise to end your workout on with medium weight as it will give your muscles a good stretch while strengthening.

I can't seem to effectively execute the movement for it to activate my chest in any substantive way. And in the decline phase of the movement I actually feel an awkward joint movement in the shoulders/traps that feels uncomfortable -- like my shoulder joint/shoulder muscle/upper back muscle is doing all the work lowering the dumbbell and raising it. My range of motion is extreemly good, I am flexible, but I feel a "grinding" sensation that does not feel like muscle moving. I feel the most minimal chest activation in the upper pec near the armpit. Please correct my technique: partyandbllsht@gmail.com-See Less

Do this excercise Decline, Keeps your chest Contracted the whole motion, thus a better excercise, bigger gains. Also if you do this at the end of an intense chest workout, it will stretch out your chest.

Am I the only one to find that this exercise works the traps as primary muscle? I haven't done ANY traps isolation exercises such as shrugs or upright rows and my traps are so disproportionate to my body people say I look like a camel lol
