Smith Machine Overhead Shoulder Press

Bewegungsablauf

1. 01 · setup

   To begin, place a flat bench (or preferably one with back support) underneath a smith machine. Position the barbell at a height so that when seated on the flat bench, the arms must be almost fully extended to reach the barbell.

2. 02 · start

   Once you have the correct height, sit slightly in behind the barbell so that there is an imaginary straight line from the tip of your nose to the barbell. Your feet should be stationary. Grab the barbell with the palms facing forward, unlock it and lift it up so that your arms are fully extended. This is the starting position.

3. 03 · lower

   Slowly begin to lower the barbell until it is level with your chin while inhaling.

4. 04 · press

   Then lift the barbell back to the starting position using your shoulders while exhaling.

5. 05 · repeat

   Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
