Instructions
1. Stand with your feet hip-width apart with a dumbbell in each hand.
2. Hinge forward at your hips and slightly bend your knees to lower your upper body until it’s almost parallel to the floor. Let the dumbbells hang directly beneath your shoulders with your palms facing behind you.
3. Brace your core and keep your back straight, with a neutral neck aligned with your spine.
4. Exhale and lift the dumbbells by pulling your elbows up and back towards the ceiling, squeezing your shoulder blades together. Keep your elbows close to your body and your hands should move towards your hips as you lift the weight.
5. Inhale and slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position with control.
6. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.
Make sure to choose a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with good form but is also sufficient to challenge your muscles. Avoid using too much weight which can lead to compensating with momentum or cause a loss of form.
