Instructions:

Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a dumbbell in both hands and extend your arms completely over your head. Wrap your thumbs around the dumbbell to get a firm grip.

Step 2: Your upper arms must be close to your head. Remember that maximum work needs to be done by your forearms. Your upper arms must be stationary.

Step 3: Bend your elbow and lower the dumbbells towards your back. Go down until your forearms touch your biceps.

Step 4: Go back to the starting position and repeat.

Important tip: Do 2 sets of 15 reps each.
