Recommendations: 2-3 Sets, 6-10 Reps
Kneel upright (not slouching) on the floor with your back straight and head looking forward. Grasp water bottles at your sides with palms facing inward. Let the bottles hang down in front of your waist. Your elbows should be slightly bent. This is the starting position. Lift the bottles to the side up to about shoulder level. When the bottles reach shoulder level, rotate them slightly inward as if you are pouring water. In other words, rotate your shoulders forward so the front of the bottles is slightly lower than the rear. This will raise your elbows slightly. Keep your elbows slightly bent and ensure that the weights come up in an arc. Exhale during this movement. Lower the bottles slowly to the starting position. Inhale during this movement. Repeat for the required number of repetitions.
