One Arm Standing Arnold Press Video Exercise Guide

1. Set up for the exercise by grabbing a dumbbell and standing straight up with your feet around shoulder width apart.
2. Raise the dumbbells with your left hand to shoulder height, and twist so that the palm of your hand is facing your body.
3. The dumbbell should now be positioned in front of your left shoulder.. Your back should be straight and there should be a slight bend in your knees. This is the starting position for the exercise.
4. Keeping your eyes facing forwards, slowly raise the dumbbell above your head while turning your wrist so that your palm is now facing forward (away from your body).  
5. Keep raising the weight until your arm is almost fully extended.
6. Do not pause at the top of the movement, and begin lowering the dumbbell back down to the starting position - twisting at the wrist until your palm is facing your body once again.
7. Repeat this movement for the desired amount of reps, and then repeat with your right arm.

​Exercise Tips:

1. Always use a full range of motion and control the dumbbells throughout the set.
2. Many lifters let their form go and add weight too quickly. This will at times result in an injury and could hinder your shoulder gains.
3. If you have lower back problems, it is best to perform this exercise seated with a back rest.
