SEATED DUMBBELL SHOULDER PRESS
Some so-called experts claim overhead presses cause rotator cuff impingement and blah blah blah. When done properly, overhead presses are great for deltoid development. Plus, you get to sit down while doing them. But if you do feel any discomfort, do dumbbell lateral raises instead.
How to do it:
• Sit on a bench that supports your back and put your feet shoulder-width apart.
• Start with the dumbbells at eye level, hands wider than your shoulders, and your arms at 90 degrees.
• With a pronated grip (palms away from you), press the dumbbells overhead, bringing them together so that they almost touch in the top position.
• Slowly lower the dumbbells to ear level and repeat.
NEXT: WALL SIT
