Instructions

Steps : 1.) Start by standing up straight with your feet shoulder width apart and a slight bend in your knees, holding a weight plate in each hand and letting your arms hang down at your sides. 2.) Once you have secured the weight plates in place, slowly shrug your shoulders as high as you can and hold the position for a count. 3.) Return back to the starting position and repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
