Straight-Arm Dumbbell Pullover

Dumbbell Chest

The Straight-Arm Dumbbell Pullover is a strength movement that targets your chest. Here's how to do it with clean form.

How to do the Straight-Arm Dumbbell Pullover

  1. Lie perpendicular across a bench with your upper back supported and hips dropped slightly below bench height.
  2. Hold one dumbbell with both hands directly over your chest, arms nearly straight.
  3. Lower the dumbbell in an arc behind your head until you feel a full stretch through your chest and lats.
  4. Pull the weight back to the start by driving through your lats, not your elbows.
