Seated shoulder press barbell

How to do it

1. 1 Sit on a bench, holding a barbell in front of your body with elbows straight and palms facing your body.
2. 2 Bend your elbows; bring the barbell closer to your chest and once elbows are fully bent, twist the barbell so that your palms face outwards.
3. 3 Now raise the barbell overhead by straightening your elbows and lifting your shoulders from the sides. Slowly return to the starting position and repeat the sequence.

Tips

• Keep your chest up and back straight throughout the exercise.
• Ensure that your palms face your thighs while performing the biceps curl and face outwards while performing the overhead press.
• Maintain a smooth breathing rhythm throughout the exercise.
