Dumbbell Seated Shoulder Press

Expert Advice

Avoid arching your back as you press the weights overhead; this will help maintain proper form and reduce the risk of injury.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Sit on a bench with back support and hold a dumbbell in each hand at shoulder height, palms facing forward.
  2. Press the dumbbells up and together overhead, fully extending your arms while exhaling.
  3. Pause at the top of the movement, then slowly lower the weights back to the starting position while inhaling.
  4. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
