1 - Stand upright with your feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand at your sides with palms facing inward.
2 - Keep your core engaged, chest up, and a slight bend in your elbows throughout the movement.
3 - Simultaneously raise one arm directly in front of you (front raise) to shoulder height while raising the other arm out to the side (lateral raise) to shoulder height, forming an 'L' shape.
4 - Hold the top position briefly, ensuring both arms reach shoulder level at the same time.
5 - Slowly lower both arms back to the starting position in a controlled manner.
6 - Alternate the direction of each arm on the next repetition so the opposite arm performs the front raise and the other performs the lateral raise.
7 - Repeat for the desired number of repetitions on each side.
