Stand tall with a neutral spine and your feet hip width apart. Hold a dumbbell in each hand with an overhand grip. Your arms should be by your sides with your palms facing in. This is your start position. Brace your core, keep a neutral spine and look straight ahead as you extend your left arm out to your side and guide the weight up. Be sure to maintain a slight bend in your elbow at all times. Exhale as you do so. Your arm should come to parallel with the floor. Pause, then slowly lower the weight back to the start position, inhaling as you do so. Repeat all the required reps on one arm before changing to the other.
