Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Adam Davila and my business is Adam’s Personal Training and my website is http://www.adamtraining.com. And the exercise that I am going to demonstrate is the standing shoulder press. The standing shoulder press is a really great exercise for developing the shoulders, triceps and upper chest muscles in addition the abdominals, low back will also be engaged when doing the standing shoulder press. The starting position when doing the stand shoulder press is a deadlift position. You want to make sure that when you get down that you have an overhand grip on the bar, that you have a thumbs-width distance from the side of your legs and that your butt is down as much as possible and your chest is lifted. From this point you want to make sure you have your neutral alignment in which is a natural curvature and you want to look straight ahead when you do this. From this point you want to stand up aggressively and bring the weight to your shoulders. "
