Execution:
1
Standing, hold the dumbbells with a neutral grip (palms facing each other).
2
Hinge at the hips, knees slightly bent, spine neutral.
3
Pull the dumbbells alongside your body, driving the elbows back.
4
Lower under control, prioritizing lower-back stability.
Tip: keep your gaze a few feet ahead on the floor — it prevents your neck from rounding.
