Performing The Exercise: Stand up straight and allow the weight to roll low on the fingers. Then curl the weight back up into the hand, flexing the wrist up toward the elbow, using just the forearms and keeping the arms straight. Then slowly let the weight roll back down to the fingers and repeat the movement.
