If you want to build strong upper limb muscles and strength, you have to practice shoulder push!
Shoulder push is one of the good movements to develop upper body muscle strength, mainly to develop our vertical push strength! It mainly trains the deltoid muscles of the shoulder, trapezoid muscles, upper chest, and three heads of the arm. Since it is a standing posture, it is a challenge to our core strength!
Generally, we will use barbells and dumbbell kettles to perform shoulder push! Most people often use positive grips (the palm facing forward grip), and today we recommend that you use the method of holding shoulder push!
Many people feel their shoulders stuck and feel uncomfortable when performing traditional positive grip presses. You should try to hold grip press!
Neutral grip Grip: The palm-to-peg grip is a natural neutral position. It is more friendly to the shoulders than the palm-to-peg grip, especially for people who have been injured on their shoulders.
The following is a demonstration of movement:
1. You can choose a standing or sitting position and choose the right dumbbell weight!
2. Grasp the dumbbell with both hands, and hold the palms facing each other, then lift the dumbbell in front of your chest, and open the shoulders horizontally and backwards!
3. Keep the shoulders firmly tightened and push upward , stay at the top of the movement for a second, and your arms will naturally be straightened!
4. If you want to use a barbell for shoulder pushing, you can use a ring bar. Compared to the Olympic bar, it moves vertically up and down without going around the neck.
Precautions:
Keep your wrist neutral, do not flex and stretch to avoid injury
If you are in a standing position, remember to clamp your butt tighten your abdominal muscles to make your torso full of rigidity. Only a stable torso can make your push smooth and avoid the risk of spine injury!
