Instructions

Steps : 1.) Start by holding a dumbbell in each hand with palms facing towards you, bending slightly at your knees and at your torso as if you were to pick up something. 2.) Hold you arms straight down with a weight in each hand and then slowly lift the dumbbells to your sides. 3.) Once at the top position hold for a count while squeezing your back muscles and then return back to the starting position. 4.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired. Tips : 1.) Do not arc or bend your back. 2.) Perform the exercise slower for more intensity. 3.) Do not lift more than you can manage as that can lead to injury.
