  • Extend your arms straight up over your chest, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
  • Lower the dumbbells down towards your chest, keeping your elbows close to your body.
  • As you lower the dumbbells, twist your wrists so that your palms face towards you at the bottom of the movement.
  • Pause for a moment at the bottom, then reverse the movement by pressing the dumbbells back up to the starting position.
