Tips

Avoid locking out your elbows to safeguard your joints. Engage your core and retract your shoulder blades for a stable base. Maintain a secure grip on the dumbbells during the entire exercise. Press upward, focusing on pushing away from the weights for better control. Keep your feet firmly planted on the floor.
