Dumbbell Deltoid Press
Great exercise for the front deltoid, while also working
the medial
and posterior deltoids to a lesser degree. Works the deltoids over a
long
range of motion.
Performing the exercise:
Starting position:
- grasp two dumbbells, raise them to your shoulders at at 90 degree
angle with your palms facing forward
- slowly raise them directly upward, from your shoulders until they
almost touch in the middle directly above your head at straight arms'
length
- slowly lower the dumbbells to the starting position and repeat the
movement
- the key to this exercise is to lower the dumbbells to the bottom
of the movement, as far as you can go, to achieve a longer range of
motion
A variation of this exercise is the Arnold
Press
