No, dumbbell should be lifted straight but the person who is lifting dumbbell is lifting it crookedly. Can Crookedly be used for both stationary and non stationary thing?

"His hat was a little crooked."

"Frame was a little crooked."

The dumbbell should be lifted straight. Yes, you can use crookedly for objects whether or not they're in motion.

As emsr2d2 pointed out, you left out another article, too. Can you see where it belongs?
 
You have omitted an article again.

"His hat was a little crooked."

"The Frame was a little crooked."

Sorry again, I feel very bad when I fail to write sentences in a proper way. Sorry again.

"The table in the room was crooked."

"Tom's body is crooked (due to some deformity)."
