Dumbbell Lateral Raise

How to do it

1. Stand upright with a dumbbell in each hand held at your sides. Your feet should be about shoulder width apart. Keep a slight bend in your elbows and your palms facing your body. This will be your starting position.
2. As you exhale, raise the dumbbells out to your sides until your arms are parallel to the floor. Tip: Lead the movement with your elbows and keep the slight bend throughout. Avoid swinging the weights.
3. Hold the top position for a second, then slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position as you breathe in.
4. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
