Make every rep count.

  1. 01

    Sit tall on the edge of a bench with your feet flat and core braced. Hold dumbbells at your sides with palms facing your thighs.

    Inhale, keep your shoulders down and back, and lift the weights straight in front of you. Maintain a soft bend in the elbows—don’t swing or use momentum.

    Raise until your hands reach about shoulder height (arms parallel to the floor).

  4. 04

    Lower slowly under control back to your sides, keeping your torso still.

    Repeat for the prescribed reps.
