Dumbbell High Pull
1 - Stand with your feet about hip- to shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand in front of your thighs with your palms facing your body.
2 - Brace your core, keep your chest tall, and hinge slightly at the hips while allowing the dumbbells to lower toward mid-thigh or just above the knees.
3 - Drive forcefully through your legs and hips to extend your body upward, using the momentum to begin pulling the dumbbells vertically.
4 - As the dumbbells rise, pull your elbows high and out to the sides, keeping the weights close to your torso.
5 - Pause briefly when the dumbbells reach about chest height, with elbows higher than the wrists and shoulders controlled.
6 - Lower the dumbbells back to the starting position in a controlled motion, resetting your posture before the next repetition.
7 - Repeat for the desired number of repetitions while maintaining an explosive hip drive and avoiding excessive shrugging or leaning back.
