How to do it

  1. Hold one dumbbell vertically against your chest, cupping the top head with both hands.
  2. Stand feet shoulder-width, elbows tucked in under the weight.
  3. Squat straight down, letting your elbows track inside your knees.
  4. Go as deep as you can while keeping your chest tall, then stand up.
  5. The weight in front is what keeps you upright - do not let it drift away from your chest.
