Dumbbell Raise

A strength-building exercise targeting the shoulders and upper back.

Instructions

• Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
• Raise the dumbbells to shoulder height with your elbows slightly bent.
• Keep your core tight and avoid swinging the weights.
• Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the start position.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Using too much weight, which can lead to poor form and potential injury.
• Not maintaining a slight bend in the elbows.
• Swinging the weights instead of using shoulder muscles.
