Dumbbell Pullovers




Dumbbell pullovers,or in short pullovers,are one of the very important exercises in chest workout routine.The most significant benefits of pullovers are that they stretch and expand the entire rib cage and put resistance on the entire upper body including the chest, arms, shoulders, and lats. Therefore, pullovers will help build a bigger and wider rib cage and chest.Another benefit of this exercise is that it can be done at home w.out any special equipment. They can be done with the help of a dumbbell or a rod.

CORRECT TECHNIQUE:






  • Lie down perpendicularly to a bench,with your upper part of back on the bench.
  • Grasp a dumbbell from the inside of its plate,and keep it at arms distance from the chest.
  • Keep both feet on the floor and your butts should be below the level of the bench.Try to keep them there during the course of the workout.
  • With a slight bend at your elbows,lower the weight down and over your head until your triceps are parallel to the ground.
  • Use your upper chest muscles to bring the dumbbell to the starting position.Do not move your hips.
  • To add an extra tricep burn in the workout,lower the dumbbell to your chest when you reach the end of a repetition.
