Start with your feet shoulder-width distance apart and toes pointed out slightly. Hold a dumbbell in each hand, directly in front of your hips. Breathe in and get tall, and as you exhale, brace (engage) your core.
Inhale and, keeping your chest up, lower yourself into a squat, lowering the dumbbells between your legs toward the floor.
At the bottom of your squat, perform a bicep curl, bending your elbows and pulling the dumbbells above your shoulders. Exhale as you drive through your heels and stand up. This completes one rep.
