For close grip DB Bench, lie down on the bench with the dumbbells on your chest, palms facing toward each other, elbows tight to the body. Draw your shoulder blades down into the bench and keep them pulled back even as you press up. Keep the DBs closer than shoulder width apart and press straight up until your arms are fully extended and perpendicular to the floor. Lower the DBs with control back to your chest.

For the flys, lie face up on the bench with arms extended straight up in the air. Keep your belly tight, avoid arching your back as you lower your arms out wide. You can keep a very slight bend in your elbows. Return the DBs back to your starting position.

For the skull crushers keep the shoulders back and down and bend only from the elbow - bringing the bar or dumbbells close to your "skull". Really extend the elbow hard at the top!

For the wide grip push ups, take your hands out a good bit wider than shoulder width. Maintain a rigid plank position. Lower your chest and thighs to the floor. Keep everything tight and press straight back up until your arms are straight.

For the diamond push ups, place your hands together with thumbs and index fingers touching to form a diamond shape.

Do push ups from your knees or elevate your hands if you need to, in order to keep your body tight and get that full range of motion!
