Chest presses, the Amazing Stickie knows, are a classic exercise. There are, of course, many variations. Today, Stickie is doing the dumbbell floor chest press. She doesn’t do this variation that often because she likes to be able to lower her elbows farther, but this is fun once in a while.
To begin, she lies on the floor with her legs in tabletop position, holding a pair of dumbbells directly above her shoulders. The dumbbells are close together, but Stickie knows that if they touch each other it makes the exercise easier and cheats her of some of her work. Stickie does not like to cheat. Maintaining a neutral spine, Stickie bends her elbows to lower the weights toward her chest and then raises them up again to the starting point.
Depending on the weight, ten to twenty reps should do it.
