The Best and the Worst Shoulders Exercises
The Worst Shoulders Exercise: the Seated Barbell Military Press
Do this one long enough and heavy enough and you can kiss your back goodbye. Get off your butt, you big sissy!
The Best Shoulders Exercise: the Arnold Press
Let’s face it, the big guy knew what he was doing. Even though there are other shoulder drills at least as effective as this one, say the clean-and-press, the Arnold press is a lot more user friendly.
Press two dumbbells from your chest starting with a curl grip. Not straight up though, but back and to the sides in an arc. It helps to bring your elbows as low as possible between reps; you will get a greater deltoid stretch and your shoulder joints will appreciate it.
