Açıklama
Seated Dumbbell Shoulder Press is a fundamental compound exercise performed seated with dumbbells that targets the entire shoulder muscles. This movement works the anterior, lateral, and partially posterior deltoids, the triceps muscles, and the upper trapezius together. Performing it seated prevents using momentum from the waist and allows the shoulder muscles to work more isolated. It is one of the most effective movements for gaining upper body strength and shoulder muscle mass. It offers a wider range of motion compared to the barbell shoulder press and allows both arms to work independently. As a cornerstone of shoulder training, it can be applied by athletes of all levels.
Adım Adım Talimatlar
- 1
Sit on a bench with back support, keep your back straight and leaning against the support pad, holding a dumbbell in each hand
- 2
Bring the dumbbells to shoulder level with palms facing forward and elbows bent at 90 degrees to the starting position
- 3
Exhaling, push the dumbbells controllably upward toward your head, lifting until your arms are nearly fully extended
- 4

- 5
Inhaling, slowly lower the dumbbells to shoulder level and repeat the movement
- 6
Keep your back pressed against the bench throughout the movement and avoid excessive movement in your lower back
Önemli Noktalar
- ✓Sit on an upright angled bench, back should be fully supported
- ✓Hold dumbbells at shoulder level, elbows at 90 degrees
- ✓Bring dumbbells slightly inward as you push them up
- ✓Hold at the peak without fully locking the elbow, keep shoulders down
- ✓Return to starting position in a controlled manner
Yaygın Hatalar
- ✗Removing the back from the bench - increases risk of lower back injury, stability is lost
- ✗Fully locking elbows - unnecessary stress on the joint
- ✗Using too much weight - form breaks down, injury risk increases
- ✗Holding dumbbells too far outward - puts pressure on shoulder rotator cuff muscles
- ✗Leaning the neck forward - tension and pain in neck muscles
Nefes Kontrolü
Exhale as you push the dumbbells up, inhale as you lower them down. Perform a strong exhalation during the most difficult part of the movement.
