How to perform

  1. 1

    Sit down on the Shoulder Press Machine and select the weight.

  2. 2

    Grab the handles to your sides as you keep the elbows bent and in line with your torso. This will be your starting position.

  3. 3

    Now lift the handles as you exhale and you extend the arms fully. At the top of the position make sure that you hold the contraction for a second.

  4. 4

    Lower the handles slowly back to the starting position as you inhale.

  5. 5

    Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Important tips

  • Brace your torso so your lower back stays neutral.

  • Move through the shoulder joint — never momentum.

  • Control the weight on the way down as much as up.
