The Arnold Squat Press builds core, legs, shoulders and cardio strength!!
⚠️Arnold Press is an iconic exercise and effectively builds the shoulder muscles; however, proper form is critical as it targets a delicate area prone to injury.⚠️
✨ Choose a dumbbell just heavy enough to complete 10 reps but by the 8th rep, you’re slightly strained and glad it’s almost over!
✨ Position your feet hip-width distance apart and always pull in your ab muscles to support your lower back.
✨ Remember to breathe normally through the exercises. Don’t hold your breath!
✨ Squeeze your glutes, abs, & shoulder blades. Do not arch your lower back.
✨ Raise dumbbells in each hand to starting position with arms bent, weights in front of your shoulders and palms facing in.
✨ Lower into a squat, pushing hips back and down as if sitting into a chair keeping heels flat. Thighs should be parallel to the ground.
✨ Avoid allowing knees to cave in toward the midline or push forward past your toes.
✨ At top of the squat, begin rotating your palms out but only to about a 45-degree angle with your torso then finish pressing up.
Depending on your fitness level, complete 2-3 sets, 10 reps each. YOU GOT THIS!! 👏💪👏
