How to perform?

The Incline Dumbbell Fly is an isolation exercise that primarily targets the upper portion of the chest muscles, along with the anterior deltoids (front of the shoulders), triceps, and core muscles. This exercise is performed lying on an incline bench while holding a dumbbell in each hand, and performing a fly-like movement with the arms. The incline position places a greater emphasis on the upper portion of the chest, while still working the other muscles to a lesser extent. The Incline Dumbbell Fly is a great exercise for adding mass and definition to the upper chest, and improving overall upper body strength and stability.
