Keeping this position fixed, smoothly lift the weight with a straight arm, to a position where the arm is vertical to the floor, hand inline with your shoulder.
You can have your palm facing downwards or forwards; however focus on keeping the lifting and lowering smooth and under control.
For a greater range of movement, and increase in difficulty, you may decide to commence the lift from a position whereby the weight is behind your lower buttock.
