Exercise of the Month: Dumbbell Shoulder Press

February 2018

This exercise will strengthen your shoulder muscles.

1. Start by grabbing your weights and holding them in the “touchdown” position.
2. Position palms forward and extend arms upward.
3. Slowly lower and repeat.
4. Perform three sets of 10 repetitions, once a day. Rest 30 seconds between sets.


Tips: 
• To prevent injury, do not lock your elbows when you extend your arms upward.
• Engage your core to maintain proper posture throughout the entire movement.
• If you do not have weights, use bottles of water or cans of soup.
• This can be done seated or standing, depending on your comfort level.
