Reps

Description

Let's get started by moving forward in your chair and leaning back so you are at an angle then grab both your dumbbells and curl them up and push them up so they are both together and hovering above your chest.

This is the starting position.

From here, with a slightly bent arm open the arms out to the side until they are level with the shoulders, don’t go too far down here.

Once done, return the dumbbells back up to the starting position. This is one repetition, now repeat this for the desired amount. Once all are completed lower the dumbbell safely.
