I can't believe I was doing it wrong all these years.Shoulder Exercises
Overhead Dumbbell Press
START: Squeeze your abs, legs and glutts. Hold dumbbells in each hand and slowly lift straight up. see picture.
Bend the elbows and slowly lower the weight. Stop when your upper arms are parallel to the floor. Pause then repeat.
Important Tips:
Keep forearms vertical throughout the entire movement. Don’t move your hands inside your elbows. This will put strain on your elbows and hands outside your elbows (like a V position) because this will put strain on your shoulders.
Use weight that is right for you. Don’t push too hard or you can cause injury.
Lock your knees. This helps you not to arch your back as your muscles start to get fatigued when preforming this exercise. Never arch your back.
Exhale as you raise the weight and inhale as you lower the weight.
