Weighted Full Can Exercise
Both arms raised a little forward of the sides to just above shoulder height, a small plate held upright by the rim in each hand, thumbs up.
How to do it
Setup
Standing, a small plate held upright by its rim in each hand at the sides, thumbs forward.
Steps
- Raise the straight arms, thumbs up, a little forward of the sides.
- Stop just above shoulder height.
- Lower the plates slowly to the sides.
Common mistakes
Raising straight out to the sides: angle the arms a little forward, in line with the blades. Plates tipping as the grip tires: squeeze the rims or take smaller plates. Shrugging at the top: blades down, neck long.
Breathing
Exhale on the raise, inhale lowering.
