Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand. Hinge forward at the hips with a flat back, keeping your core engaged and elbows tucked close to your sides. Start with your arms bent at 90 degrees, then extend the dumbbells straight back, squeezing your triceps at the top. Slowly return to the starting position with control, keeping your upper arms still throughout the movement.
