Dumbbell Shoulder Press

BeginnerDumbbell

A compound overhead press built around the shoulders. Because dumbbells move independently, they demand more from the small stabilizing muscles and expose any strength gap between your left and right sides. A staple for building pressing strength and balanced shoulders.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Sit on a bench with your back straight, holding a dumbbell just outside each shoulder, palms facing forward and elbows bent at your sides.

  2. 2

    Press through your palms to extend your arms overhead, keeping your forearms vertical.

  3. 3

    At full extension the dumbbells should line up roughly over your ears.

  4. 4

    Lower them under control back to shoulder height and repeat.
