- Hold the handles at shoulder height with palms facing forward
- Brace your core and press the handles overhead
- Bring the handles slightly together at the top
- Lower under control back to shoulder level
Coaching tip
Cables keep tension even at the bottom of the movement; that constant resistance is the difference from dumbbells.
