Exercise of the Week: Dumbbell Arnold Press

The Dumbbell Arnold Press is one of my personal favorite exercises because it targets various areas of the shoulders rather than simply engaging the front part of your shoulders. The rotating motion helps to include the middle and rear parts of your shoulder as well.


Instructions:
Step 1
Assume start position as shown with weights in hands, palms facing in.

Step 2
Start to lift weights overhead, and rotate them on the way up.

Step 3
End position should be palms facing out.

Step 4
To return to start position, rotate elbow as it bends in toward center of body.
