How to do it

Keep the dumbbells stacked directly over your shoulders throughout each rep.

  1. 1

    Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at shoulder height.

  2. 2

    Step forward with one leg, lowering your hips until both knees are bent at about a 90-degree angle.

  3. 3

    Make sure your front knee is directly above your ankle, not pushed out too far.

  4. 4

    Push back up to the starting position.

  5. 5

    Repeat on the other side and continue alternating for the desired number of repetitions.

Expert tip

Keep your torso upright and core engaged to maintain balance throughout the movement.
