Dumbbell Seated Cuban Press
How to Do:
- Sit on a bench with your feet flat on the floor and a dumbbell in each hand, arms hanging by your sides, palms facing inward.
- Raise the dumbbells laterally to shoulder height, keeping a slight bend in your elbows.
- Rotate your forearms upward to bring the dumbbells into a front rack position, with your palms facing forward and elbows bent at 90 degrees.
- Press the dumbbells overhead until your arms are fully extended.
- Reverse the motion by lowering the dumbbells back to shoulder height, rotating your forearms downward, and returning the dumbbells to the starting position.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Benefits:
The Dumbbell Seated Cuban Press strengthens the shoulders, rotator cuff, and upper back while enhancing stability and range of motion. The seated position reduces momentum, ensuring proper form and maximising muscle activation.
