Standing Alternating Dumbbell Press

How to perform

1. 1

   Stand with a dumbbell in each hand. Raise the dumbbells to your shoulders with your palms facing forward and your elbows pointed out. This will be your starting position.

3. 3

   After a brief pause, return the weight to the starting position.

4. 4

   Repeat for the opposite side, continuing to alternate between arms.
