Make every rep count.

  1. 01

    Stand tall with feet about shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your thighs with palms facing down.

  2. 02

    Take a breath in and brace your core. With a slight bend in your elbows, lift both arms straight out in front of you in a smooth, controlled motion.

  3. 03

    Stop when the dumbbells reach shoulder height (arms roughly parallel to the floor). Avoid leaning back or swinging.

  4. 04

    Lower slowly back to the start while staying upright and keeping tension in your shoulders.

  5. 05

    Repeat for your target reps, keeping every rep controlled.
