Exercise Technique |
| Beginning Position |
| |
Sit down on a bench with your feet flat on the floor, hips flexed at a 900 angle and shoulder blades down and together. |
| |
Hold a dumbbell in each hand with your palms facing forward. |
| |
Place the weights at shoulder level, hands are slightly wider than shoulder width apart. |
|
|
| |
Execution: |
| |
While exhaling, slowly press the weights upward and fully extend the elbows without hyperextending them. |
| |
Pause briefly while contracting the deltoids and triceps. |
| |
Slowly lower the weights back to the shoulder level position. Repeat. |
|
| Training Tips: |
| |
Maintain the wrists in a neutral position, and avoid leaning backward. |
| |
Keep head and neck in neutral alignment while minimizing the elevation of your shoulders. |
