How to do it

Grab a pair of dumbbells and sit on a military press bench or a utility bench with a back support. Place the dumbbells upright on top of your thighs. Using your thighs, clean one dumbbell at a time up to shoulder height, rotating your wrists so that the palms of your hands face forward. This will be your starting position. Exhale as you push the dumbbells up until they touch at the top. Pause for a second, then slowly lower them back to the starting position as you inhale.
