How to perform exercise
- To begin, stand up with a dumbbell held in one hand. Your feet should be about shoulder width apart from each other. Now fully extend the arm with the dumbbell over your head. Tip: The small finger of your hand should be facing the ceiling and the palm of your hand should be facing forward. The dumbbell should be above your head.

Tip: The upper arm should remain stationary and only the forearm should move. Breathe in as you perform this step.
