Seated Shoulder Press

The seated shoulder press is used when you are lifting heavier weights or wish to isolate shoulders with heavier weight without fatiguing through the core area. It is also useful to use when getting spotted by a partner as they can help control weight.

Start seated in an upright position. Begin with weight at ear level with wrists directly above elbows and wrists facing forward.

   

Lift in an arc motion controlling the weights and palms facing forwards through the whole lift. Keep back straight and hold core tight.

   
Finishing positioning should have weights together at the top of the lift with arms straight. Lower weight back to the starting position.

One arm seated shoulder press, this exercise is the same muscle group but put more work on the core. As you have all the weight on one side of the body your core has to work harder to stay balanced. You will not lift as heavy of a weight but will get a greater all over body workout.
