Instructions:
- 1Sit on a bench and hold a dumbbell in each hand at shoulder level, palms facing your body.
- 2In a smooth motion, rotate your palms outward as you push the dumbbells up and over your head.
- 3Pause at the top of the lift before slowly rotating your palms toward your body as you lower the dumbbells back to shoulder level.
- 4Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
- 5Maintain good posture throughout the movement, keeping your chest high and back straight.
Tips:
- Avoid rushing the movement; keep it slow, steady, and controlled.
- Do not use your back or legs to help push the dumbbells up; this should be a shoulder-dominant movement.
- Vary the degree of rotation based on shoulder comfort.
- Remember to breathe during the movement: exhale while pushing up, inhale while bringing the weights down.
