SHOULDERS
Cable Shoulder Press
Adjust the seat back to the most upright position. Adjust the Functional Training Arms to a vertical position. Adjust the seat so that the cable handles are at shoulder level. Grab the handles with an overhand grip and press your arms overhead. Do not lock out your elbows. Return slowly.
Variations: Use a neutral grip, or even twist your wrists (like a karate punch). You can also vary the width of the Functional Training Arms. Changing the grip and width does emphasize different areas of the muscle group. As with all cable oriented exercises, this exercise can be performed one arm at a time.
Primary muscles worked: Deltoids (shoulder), Triceps (back of arm).
