Bend at your hips and knees, keeping your back straight, until your torso is almost parallel to the floor.
Let the dumbbells hang at arm's length from your shoulders, palms facing your body.
Pull the dumbbells to your rib cage, keeping your elbows close to your body and squeezing your shoulder blades together.
Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position, maintaining control of the movement, and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: Avoid jerky or fast movements. The key to getting the most out of this exercise is to perform it in a slow and controlled manner. As you pull the dumbbells towards your chest, squeeze your shoulder blades together. Hold for a moment, then slowly lower the weights back to the starting position. Right Weight: Choose a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form but is still challenging. Using weights that are too heavy can lead to poor form and potential injury, while weights that are too light may not provide enough resistance to effectively work your muscles.
