Instructions
1. Stand tall with your feet shoulder-width apart.
2. Hold a dumbbell in each hand with a neutral grip (palms facing each other) in front of your thighs. This is the starting position. You can also perform this exercise without weights, focusing purely on form and muscle contraction.
3. Brace your core and raise the weights upward in front of you to shoulder height, keeping your arms straight but not locked.
4. As you raise the weights, twist them so that your palms face downward at the top of the movement.
5. Pause briefly at the top, then slowly reverse the motion back to the starting position, untwisting your wrists as you lower the weights.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Make sure to keep your back straight and avoid using momentum to lift the weights. Perform the movement in a slow and controlled manner to maximize muscle engagement. If adding a twist to engage the core, do so in a controlled way as well, without compromising form or balance.
