The dumbbell overhead press works every part of your shoulders — the front, sides, and back!
- Stand with your feet hip-width apart with a dumbbell in each hand.
- Lift the dumbbells until they are at your shoulder height. Your palms will face forward, and your elbows will be bent at a 90-degree angle.
- Push the weights toward the ceiling until elbows are almost fully extended. The weights will naturally move toward each other as you push them over your head, but they should not touch each other.
- Pause, then slowly return back to starting position.
- Complete three sets of 8 to 12 reps.
