Dumbbell Standing Alternate Arnold Press
The standing Arnold press one arm at a time, the other bell waiting in front of its shoulder with the palm in.
How to do it
Setup
Standing, feet hip-width, both dumbbells in front of the shoulders, palms facing you, elbows forward.
Steps
- Press one bell up, turning its palm forward.
- Lower it with the reverse turn to the start.
- Press the other the same way and keep alternating.
Common mistakes
Waiting arm sagging: keep that bell in front of the shoulder, palm in. Torso swaying with each press: brace and stay square. Skipping the turn on the way down: reverse it every rep.
Breathing
Exhale on each press, inhale lowering.
