Reverse Fly, Dumbbell |
Type: Shoulder |
|
|
|
The dumbbell reverse fly targets the rear shoulder (posterior deltoid) muscles. Performing reverse flies with dumbbells is quite a challenging exercise, so start with a relatively light weight to perfect the movement. Squeezing the shoulder blades together at the end of the movement will also work the upper and mid back. Below you'll find a video guide and step by step instructions that demonstrate the correct technique for the dumbbell reverse fly exercise.

Reverse Fly, Dumbbell Steps:
Set up an adjustable gym bench to an incline of about 30 degrees.
|
Take a pair of dumbbells and sit on the bench as though you are sitting the wrong way around on a dining chair.
|
Lean forwards so your chest is resting on the back of the bench (this is called the prone position).
|
Position your feet flat on the floor, with your arms at your sides holding the dumbbells with an underhand grip.
|
With a slight bend in the elbows, inhale and raise the arms up from your sides.
|
Pause at the top and squeeze the shoulder blades together.
|
Return to the start position.
|
Top Tip:The dumbbell reverse fly can also be performed seated.
