Dumbbell Seated Reverse Arnold Press
The Arnold press run backwards: pressed up with the palms facing in, turned forward at the top and lowered out wide.
How to do it
Setup
Seated tall on a flat bench, bells in front of the shoulders, palms facing each other, elbows forward.
Steps
- Press the bells straight up with the palms facing in.
- Turn the palms forward at the top and lower the bells out wide to ear height.
- Bring the elbows back in front, palms in, to finish the rep.
Common mistakes
Turning the palms before the arms are straight: finish the press, then turn. Dropping the bells out wide too fast: lower them under control. Arching the back on the bench: sit tall with the ribs down.
Breathing
Exhale pressing, inhale returning.
