Alternating Push Press
Shoulders
- Push Presses are similar to a Strict Shoulder Press, however we use some momentum from our legs to push the weights up overhead.
1. Start with your feet about shoulder width apart. Have two dumbbells prepared at your shoulders.
2. Bend your knees slightly
3. Extend your knees and push one dumbbell up at the same time.
4. Lower the dumbbell and repeat the exercise of the opposite side.
- Activate your shoulders to push the weights overhead.
- Do not arch your back. Keep a straight spine with core engaged.
- As your extend through your legs, use that momentum/push to assist you in raising the weight overhead.
