Bend until back is nearly parallel to the floor. Your legs should be slightly bent, keep your back straight.
Grasp a dumbbell in each hand and let hang straight down.
Focus your eyes on a spot high on the wall in front of you which will assist in keeping your back in a stable position throughout the movement.
Keep your elbows almost locked and your arms straight. Raise dumbbells in a semicircular motion to shoulder height, in line with your ears at the top of the lift. Lower slowly to the starting position.
Once you reach the point of your arms becoming parallel to the floor, stop and hold them there for a one-count.
Return to the start position and repeat for the desired amount of repetitions
