I did them successfully for the first time today. I tried holding dumbbells at my side-big fail. I tried holding a 25 lb. plate to my chest and that worked well.

My biggest problem with the dumbbells was that I had trouble balancing, not just while rotating but while doing the dynamic lunge itself. I also kept knocking myself with the dumbbells. I had no balance issues whatsoever while holding a plate.
