Instructions
1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell with both hands in front of your chest. Your elbows should be slightly bent, and your grip should be firm.
2. Extend the dumbbell straight out in front of you at chest height, keeping your arms parallel to the ground. Your back should be straight, core engaged, and eyes focused forward.
3. Pull the dumbbell back towards your chest, maintaining the same height and keeping your movements controlled.
4. Repeat the extension and retraction smoothly, simulating a driving motion, as the name suggests. The tempo can be varied depending on your fitness goals.
5. Perform the desired number of repetitions, then rest between sets.
Remember to breathe evenly throughout the exercise, inhaling as you draw the dumbbell back and exhaling as you extend it forward. This exercise can help build strength and stability in your shoulders, which can be beneficial for any pressing movements and upper body activities.
