Step 1

Holding a dumbbell in each hand in a neutral grip (palms facing inward), plant both feet on the floor hip-width apart. This is your starting position.

Step 3

Inhale. Extend your right elbow and rotate your wrist inwards to return to the starting position.

Step 4

Exhale. While keeping your upper arm as still as possible, bend your left elbow and gradually rotate your wrist outwards to bring the dumbbell up towards your left shoulder.

Step 5

Inhale. Extend your left elbow and rotate your wrist inwards to return to the starting position. Continue alternating between right and left for the specified number of repetitions.
