Dumbbell Seated Alternate Shoulder
Target Muscle
Secondary Muscles
Equipment
Keep your back firmly against the bench and feet flat on the floor for stability.
Slowly raise one dumbbell overhead until your arm is fully extended, while keeping the other dumbbell at shoulder level.
Lower the raised dumbbell back to the starting position at a controlled pace.
Repeat the movement with the other arm, alternating between each side for the desired number of reps.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: Avoid the temptation to use momentum or swing the dumbbells up and down. Instead, raise and lower the weights in a slow, controlled manner. This will ensure that your shoulder muscles are doing the work and not your back or arms. Right Weight: Select a weight that is challenging but manageable. If the weight is too heavy, you may strain your muscles or compromise your form. If it's too light, you won't effectively engage your shoulder muscles. Full Range of Motion: It's important to use a full range of motion when lifting the dumbbells. Raise the dumbbells until your arms are fully extended but not locked at the elbow,
