Step-by-step

- Palms face forward or slightly inward
- Squeeze your glutes and abs, then press the dumbbells overhead
- Bring the dumbbells slightly together at the top without fully locking the elbows
- Lower under control back to shoulder level
Coaching tip
Lock your torso by squeezing your glutes and abs; the standing press is also a core exercise.
