There’s lots of shoulder press variations, so which one should you be doing?!⬇️

First, you need to determine your goal…I prioritize “bodybuilding” and building muscle, so that’s why we’re taking a look at the DB Shoulder Press & the Machine Shoulder Press. I would recommend staying away from standing variations because your shoulders often receive assistance from several other muscle groups (core/legs/low back). THAT’S NOT A BAD THING, it just means that it would benefit individuals who prioritize full body workouts, like athletes, for example. Seated variations offer more stability, which will make it easier to load the target muscle (deltoid) & achieve the necessary mechanical tension that will build bigger shoulders✅

As far as I’m concerned, the Machine Shoulder Press & DB Shoulder Press are essentially 1A and 1B! I prefer machine work, but it’s way more satisfying to shoulder press heavy DBs. But in my personal experience, machine shoulder pressing has been easier to recover from & it doesn’t agitate my elbows as severely as DBs do (I have chronically injury-prone elbows).

Shoulder Press Variation of Choice:
1-2 Sets (Warm Up Weight)
2-3 Sets (Working Weight)
6-10 Reps
