Clanging Fly's
Clanging fly's are performed the same as normal fly's, with the main exception being your hand grip. You will need to have your palms facing forward throughout the movement.

Position yourself on either a flat - incline - decline bench, or even the floor, holding suitable weighted dumbbells in each hand, making sure that at the finish of the movement both dumbbells are actually touching each other - with your thumbs close to each other.
For best results, aim to use solid dumbbells, that will enable the weights to be brought in close to each other.
Lower your arms down, and out to your sides, keeping a bend at the elbow with your palms facing forward, thumbs on top. Avoid lowering any lower than your shoulder height, taking care that all locking collars are securely fastened.
Exhale and bring the weight back up to your central position, with straight arms, lightly touching the dumbbells together, hence the clanging. Avoid smashing the weights together.
