How to perform the dumbbell shrug
- Stand with your feet hip-width apart, and hold a dumbbell in each hand at your sides, with your palms facing your thighs. Keeping your arms straight, shrug your shoulders upward as high as you can, engaging your upper traps. Pause briefly at the top, then lower your shoulders back to the starting position and repeat.
