    How to: Dumbbell Standing Arms Rotate

    1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
    2. Keep your elbows close to your body and rotate your arms outward, rotating from the forearm.
    3. Hold the contracted position for a moment, then slowly return to the starting position.
    4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
