Always aim to carry a weight in each hand in order to balance the weight correctly, if you use just one dumbbell, you will find that the weight will pull you to that side, causing excessive strain on your lower back on your other side.
Lifting two dumbbells safely off the floor (straight back - bent legs) aim to walk with the weights for as long as possible, placing in some 180 degree turns, so you're forced to slow down and control your movement.
Always carry the weights by your sides, rather than in front of your body, due to the risk of injury if you drop the weights. Take care that all locking collars are correctly fitted.
