Dumbbell Standing Palms In Press

The Dumbbell Standing Palms In Press is a great compound exercise that targets multiple muscle groups in your upper body. For this exercise, you'll need a pair of dumbbells and enough space to stand comfortably. This exercise primarily works your deltoids (shoulders), triceps (back of the arms), and upper back muscles. It also engages your core for stability and strength. To perform the Dumbbell Standing Palms In Press, start by standing tall with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a dumbbell in each hand, palms facing in towards your body. Keep your spine straight and your core engaged throughout the movement. Begin the exercise by bending your elbows and bringing the dumbbells up towards your shoulders. Keep your elbows tucked in close to your body as you lift. Once the dumbbells reach shoulder height, press them upwards until your arms are fully extended overhead, without locking your elbows. As you lift the dumbbells, focus on keeping your shoulders down and away from your ears. This helps engage the correct muscles and prevents unnecessary strain. Slowly lower the dumbbells back to the starting position, maintaining control throughout the movement. The Dumbbell Standing Palms In Press is a versatile exercise that can be incorporated into any upper body or full body workout routine. It helps build strength, stability, and muscular definition in your shoulders, triceps, and upper back. Remember to start with a weight that challenges you but allows you to maintain proper form. As you progress, you can increase the weight gradually to continue challenging your muscles.
