Instructions
Around The Worlds
Lay down on a flat bench holding a dumbbell in each hand with the palms of the hands facing towards the ceiling. Tip: Your arms should be parallel to the floor and next to your thighs. To avoid injury, make sure that you keep your elbows slightly bent. This will be your starting position.
Now move the dumbbells by creating a semi-circle as you displace them from the initial position to over the head. All of the movement should happen with the arms parallel to the floor at all times. Breathe in as you perform this portion of the movement.
Reverse the movement to return the weight to the starting position as you exhale.
One-Arm Kettlebell Floor Press
Lie on the floor holding a kettlebell with one hand, with your upper arm supported by the floor. The palm should be facing in.
Press the kettlebell straight up toward the ceiling, rotating your wrist.
Lower the kettlebell back to the starting position and repeat.
Verdict
Both exercises target the chest. Around The Worlds is a intermediate exercise using dumbbell, while One-Arm Kettlebell Floor Press is intermediate and uses kettlebells. Choose Around The Worlds if you have access to dumbbell, or One-Arm Kettlebell Floor Press if you prefer kettlebells.
