Dumbbell Skull Crusher

Starting position

• Lie on a flat bench, dumbbells above the chest with straight arms.
• Palms facing each other.

Execution

• Lower the dumbbells beside the head by bending the elbows.
• Extend back up; the upper arms stay still.
• Breathe out as you extend.

Common mistakes

• Elbows flaring wide.
• Upper arms moving along.
• Dumbbells too close to the face.
