How To Do A Floor Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press Exercise Demonstration Video and Guide
The Floor Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press is a unique exercise that not only targets your shoulders, but it also pulls in a lot more core strength and flexibility than the traditional shoulder press from a bench.
To get started:
- While sitting on the floor, spread your legs apart to create a V shape.
- Press your legs into the ground, including your hamstrings and calves, contract your butt, and keep your chest up and core on to maintain a flat back.
- Hold a pair of dumbbells in each hand at shoulder height, with palms facing forward.
- While maintaining a flat back, your chest high, and your legs pressed into the floor, extend your arms to press the dumbbells over your head.
- Focus once again on keeping your legs pressed into the ground and core contracted to protect your lower back and improve stability and balance for this movement.
- Under control, reverse the movement and repeat.
