Start by placing the bench on a 45 to 60 degree incline and stand behind it with the back of your upper arm support by the bench (you may to be in a half knee or full kneel position). Hold a dumbbell in your hand and bend the elbow to raise the dumbbell without shifting the elbow off of the bench pad.
