Benefits:
The dumbbell shoulder press effectively targets the deltoid muscles, building strength and size in the shoulders. It also engages the triceps and upper chest, improving overall upper body strength. By pressing in a seated position, this exercise minimizes the use of momentum, emphasizing control and form. This movement enhances shoulder stability and pressing power, making it valuable for improving posture and boosting performance in other upper body exercises.
