๐Ÿ›‘ STOP HOLDING DUMBBELLS LIKE A BARBELL!! โŒ You end up flaring your elbows out which reduces range of motion and puts unnecessary strain on your shoulders. โœ… Instead, turn your dumbbells diagonally! This will slow your elbows to drop down rather than flare out - which unlocks more range of motion and less shoulder strain! I mean what are we talking about people!!!!!! A simple change like this can give you YEARS of healthy shoulders and all you had to do was move your wrists a bit!! No-brainer
