PURPOSE OF EXERCISE: To train the front
and side deltoids. This is the
granddaddy of shoulder exercises. When
done from a seated position the
movement will be stricter than when
standing.
EXECUTION: (1) From a sitting or
standing position, grasp a barbell with
an overhand grip and hold it at shoulder
level, palms underneath for support,
hands outside your shoulders, elbows
tucked in and under. (2) From a position
about even with the collarbone, lift the
bar straight up overhead until your arms
are locked out, being careful to keep the
weight balanced and under control.
Lower the weight back to the starting
position.military press 1
