Step 1: Start in a standing position with your arms straight down while holding onto dumbbells or cans.

Step 2: Bend your hips forward at approximately 90 degrees with your knees slightly bent to relieve stress on your lower back.

Step 3: Slowly pull the weights straight up, then slowly lower them back down.

Step 4: This counts as 1 repetition. Try to perform 3 sets of 12 repetitions, adjusting the weight and number of repetitions as needed.

Alternatively, you can perform this exercise one arm at a time. If you find it somewhat stressful on your back, brace yourself on a chair or counter with your other arm.
