How To Do Overhead Arnold Press

If you want an upper body strength move that targets several muscle groups at a time, the Arnold press is it. The Arnold press is an upper-body move that strengthens all three heads of your shoulders, as well as your back.
Learn how to practice this move with proper form, Arnold press muscles worked, and how to include them in your workouts.
► To start, you need a pair of dumbbells to perform this exercise. The challenge when performing the dumbbell Arnold press is to choose the appropriate weight. Because it involves all three heads of your shoulders, you may want to start lighter than you would with a basic overhead shoulder press.
ARNOLD PRESS FORM:
1️⃣ Stand with feet hip-distance apart holding dumbbells at shoulder height with arms tight to the body, and palms face in.
2️⃣ Rotate arms out to the sides. Palms face forward and continue to lift up into an overhead shoulder press.
3️⃣ Pause and reverse to go back to the start position with elbows in tight, palms face in at shoulder height.
Perform a set of 12-15 repetitions.
