How to Do

How to Do Dumbbell Split Jerk

The dumbbell split jerk should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.

If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the dumbbell split jerk.

1. In each hand, take a dumbbell and hold it at your sides. Standing with your feet around hip-width apart is a good idea.

2. Raise the dumbbells so that the weight is slightly over your shoulders and the palms of your hands are facing your head. This is where you'll begin.

3. Begin by stooping slightly and exploding up while lifting dumbbells above your head and splitting your feet apart.

4. Return the dumbbells to shoulder height and the feet to hip-width apart. As needed, repeat the process.
