Description

Place two weights on a stable surface, such as a table or a dresser. Stand facing them with your feet hip-width apart. Extend your arms in front of you and grab the weights. Lower into a squat position until your arms are horizontal, then lock your arms at this level and stand up while keeping this arm position. Then, squat down again to place the weights back on the table, and stand up without lifting them. Repeat this movement several times.
