General And Specifics
- grasp two dumbbells with lighter weight with hammer grip
- your posture is upright
- the feet are hip width apart
- bend the arms and bring the elbows to shoulder height, so that the dumbbells are in front of the sternum
Correct Execution
- hold the arms in shoulder height and stretch them out in front of your chest
- keep the arms stretched and guide them to the sides in a wide bow
- your upper body is in the form of a T now
- bend the arms and bring the weights back into the starting position
- this creates a flowing motion
- do not let the upper body swing
- do several reps without pausing
- afterwards, invert the direction of the rotation and do the same number of reps
