The lying dumbbell row is a great one to add to your routine if you are looking to improve your upper back and chest.  Here’s how you perform the exercise:

Lie chest down on a bench with dumbbells grasped below the bench.
Pull dumbbells to sides until upper arm is just beyond horizontal or height of back.
Return until arms are extended and shoulders are stretched forward. Repeat.

Note: Bench should be high enough to allow shoulders to stretch forward without dumbbells hitting floor.
