Hints
Seated on a sturdy armless chair, hold dumbbells with palms facing you. As you press the dumbbells up, rotate your wrists so palms face away at the top. Return them down creating a circular motion, ending with palms facing you again.
Common Mistakes
Avoid using momentum; control the dumbbell movement. Ensure wrist transitions are smooth, not jerky.
Breathing
Inhale as you initiate the press; exhale at the top with the wrist rotation. Inhale while lowering the dumbbells; exhale as you reach the starting position.
