Begin with your feet hip width apart.

Raise your dumbbells so they are resting near your shoulder, parallel to each other. Be sure to keep your shoulders relaxed.

Lower yourself into a squat, pushing your hips back before sitting into a “chair”. Keep all of the weight in your heels.

As you exhale and begin to come up, press the dumbbells towards the ceiling. Keep your elbows from locking at the top of the shoulder press.

Lower your arms back toward your shoulders. As you are lowering, begin your squat - performing a fluid motion.
