Main muscles working (thicker lines)
Stand tall holding a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs, palms facing your legs, hands a little narrower than shoulder-width.
Brace and keep the dumbbells close to your body.
Pull them up by driving the elbows up and out.
Stop when the elbows reach about shoulder height and pause briefly.
Lower under control to the thighs.
Breathing: Exhale as you pull, inhale as you lower.
Elbows above the hands
Let the dumbbells drift wide
Stop at shoulder height
Pulling the dumbbells up to the chin
Swinging with the hips
Letting the wrists curl up
Use a grip at least shoulder-width and stop around shoulder height to reduce shoulder impingement risk; skip it if it causes pain.
