General And Specifics
- this exercise focuses on the rear part of the shoulders respectively the deltoid
Starting Position
- grasp a dumbbell with each hand
- the arms are slightly bent
- the feet are shoulder width apart, knees bent a little
- tilt the upper body forwards (the back remains straight) until it is almost horizontal
- your bottom moves backwards a bit, a light hollow-back is built up
- the weights are in front of your shins then
- the palms of the hands point to each other
Correct Execution
- lift the dumbbells up at the sides of your body in a bow until they are parallel to the ground
- the shoulder blades turn towards each other
- hold your back straight, to avoid injuries
- your upper body should not swing
- hold the weights up shortly (if you cannot hold them up, they are too heavy), go back to the starting position slowly
- repeat the shoulder exercise several times
