Be careful not to drop your weights while you exercise. Consider watching programs that are less intense so that you can focus some attention on holding your dumbbells. If you drop your dumbbells, don’t try to catch them. Move your feet and your hands out of the way and let them fall on the floor. Otherwise, you may hurt yourself.

Make sure to raise and lower the dumbbells in smooth, controlled movements. If you swing your arms, you could injure yourself. Warm yourself up before you do lateral raises by doing some arm circles.
