Instructions
Preparation
- Stand holding dumbbells to sides.
Execution
- Elevate shoulders as high as possible. Lower and repeat.
Comments
- Exercise may be perform standing perfectly upright or very
slightly bent over. Since this movement becomes more difficult
as full shoulder elevation is achieved, height criteria for shoulder
elevation may be needed. For example, raising shoulders until
slope of shoulders become horizontal may be considered adequate
depending upon individual body structure and range of motion
with lighter weight. Also see ROM
