Place the feet in a lunge stance and post one hand on the forward knee. Start the dumbbell on the floor each rep. With the free hand, use the back and trunk to initiate a strong pull and follow through to bring the elbow and dumbbell as high and back as possible. This exercise is meant to use the body to move the dumbbell, not to be a strict, controlled movement.
