How to perform

Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand. Hinge at the hips, keeping your back straight and knees slightly bent, until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor. Let dumbbells hang with palms facing each other. Engage your core and align your neck with your spine. Raise dumbbells out to the sides until arms are parallel to the floor, maintaining a slight bend in your elbows. Pause, then slowly lower to the starting position. Repeat.

Tips

Maintain a neutral spine. Squeeze shoulder blades at the top. Control the descent. Avoid momentum. Keep your head neutral, focusing on a spot on the floor.
