With palms facing behind you, grab a dumbbell in each hand with arms hanging to your side. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and a slight bend in the knees. As you exhale, pull the dumbbells up along the outside of the body until your elbows are parallel with your shoulders. Once the dumbbells reach the level of the shoulders, rotate the arms so that your palms are now facing forward and the dumbbells are above your shoulders. Press the dumbbells up above your head until the arms are straight. As you inhale, follow the steps in reverse by lowering the weights, rotating the arms and lowering the dumbbells to starting position. Perform this exercise as one steady movement and do not rock the body.
