Iron Cross
Intermediate Dumbbell Shoulders
How to do it
- Stand upright with your feet shoulder width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides with your palms facing your body. This will be your starting position.
- As you exhale, raise both arms out to your sides simultaneously until they are parallel to the floor, forming a T-shape with your body. Keep a slight bend in your elbows throughout the movement.
- Hold the position at the top for a second, squeezing your shoulder muscles.
- Slowly lower the dumbbells back to your sides as you breathe in.
- Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
