Talking about π¬ Dumbbell Front Rack Squats
1οΈβ£ Rest the dumbbells on the front of your shoulders with your elbows pointing forward and slightly up.
2οΈβ£ Hold the dumbbells lightly to avoid unnecessary wrist strain.
3οΈβ£ Keep your elbows elevated to prevent the dumbbells from pulling your torso forward.
4οΈβ£ Engage your core muscles throughout the movement to protect your lower back.
