Palms facing you
Starting position
Sit against a backrest with your feet on the floor and hold the dumbbells in front of your shoulders, palms facing you.
The movement
Press the dumbbells up and turn your palms forward, then lower them and turn your palms back toward you.
Most common mistake
Don't flare your elbows immediately, let them follow the rotation as you press the dumbbells up.
