Instructions
The Dumbbell Seated Arnold Press is a variation of the traditional shoulder press that targets the deltoid muscles, with an emphasis on the anterior deltoids. It also engages the triceps and the upper chest. Here’s a step-by-step guide to performing it correctly: Starting Position: Begin with your arms bent, palms facing your body (like at the top of a bicep curl), and the dumbbells at shoulder level. Sit up straight with your chest out, core engaged, and back firmly pressed against the bench. Execution: Start the movement by pressing the dumbbells overhead. As you press, rotate your palms outward so that they face forward at the top of the movement. Fully extend your arms overhead, but don’t lock your elbows. Slowly reverse the movement by lowering the dumbbells back to the starting position, rotating your palms inward so they face your body again. Repeat and perform the desired number of repetitions.
