Arnold Press
Target Muscle
Secondary Muscles
Equipment
Raise the dumbbells to shoulder height, then rotate your palms so they are facing forward.
Push the dumbbells upward until your arms are fully extended above your head.
Slowly lower the dumbbells back to shoulder height while rotating your palms to face your body again.
This completes one rep; repeat the process for your desired number of repetitions.
Pro Tip
**Controlled Movements**: Avoid rushing through the movements. The Arnold Press should be performed slowly and controlled, both when lifting and lowering the weights. This not only ensures the targeted muscles are fully engaged, but also reduces the risk of injury. **Right Weight**: Select a weight that is challenging but manageable. Using weights that are too heavy can lead to improper form and increase the risk of injury. On the other hand, weights that are too light might not provide enough resistance to effectively work the muscles. **Breathing Technique**: Remember to breathe correctly. Inhale as you lower the weights
