The bent elbow fly is an essential exercise for shoulder strength and stability. It helps build muscle around both your lower and upper arm bones, exactly what is needed to fight bone loss.
Start with very small weights if you are new to weight training. You can even use soup cans if you don't have 1# weights is better to learn the form, without any discomfort, before adding weight. Muscle takes 8-12 weeks to build, so don't give up when you are still doing the same weight after several weeks.
