How to do it
- Stand tall with a dumbbell in each hand in front of your shoulders, palms facing you.
- Open your elbows out to the sides as you turn your palms forward.
- Press the weights overhead until your arms are straight.
- Reverse the path, turning your palms back toward you as you lower.
Form tips
- Keep your ribs down so your lower back does not arch.
- Make the rotation smooth rather than a separate step.
