keep your back straight throughout - avoid leaning forward or back raise the weights no higher than your shoulders

Commence the exercise by holding a suitably weighted dumbbell in each hand, at hip level, with your arms straight, palms facing towards you.

Smoothly lift the weights up from a vertical position, to one whereby your arms are now horizontal to the floor, keeping your hands shoulder width apart.

Throughout the movement aim to keep your back straight, head up, avoiding any excessive arching or leaning forward from the spine.
