Standing Shoulder Press

The standing shoulder press is used to work the shoulder and core. Primarily you are working the shoulder but the core is also working due to offset weight. As well as you are using your core to hold the standing position.

Begin with legs apart slightly more than shoulder width. Have weight at ear level 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 weight at the top of the lift with arms straight. Lower weight back to the starting position.

Ensure you are only using your shoulder and core. This is not an exercise that has anything to do with your legs your knees should not be bending. Do not use your legs to lift the weight.
