Exercise Description

The one arm standing palms in dumbbell press builds shoulder strength and fixes muscle imbalances. It forces your core to work harder for stability.

How To

1. Stand with feet hip-width apart, hold one dumbbell at shoulder height with palm facing inward 2. Brace your core and keep your torso upright throughout the one arm standing palms in dumbbell press 3. Press the dumbbell straight up until your arm is fully extended overhead 4. Lower the weight back to starting position with control during this one arm standing palms in dumbbell press 5. Complete all reps on one side before switching to the other arm

Form Tips

• Keep your palm facing inward throughout the entire one arm standing palms in dumbbell press movement • Don't lean to one side - your core should fight to keep you centered • Press straight up, not forward or backward during the one arm standing palms in dumbbell press • Keep your free hand at your side or on your hip for balance

Common Mistakes

• Leaning away from the working arm during the one arm standing palms in dumbbell press - stay centered • Pressing the weight forward instead of straight up - this reduces shoulder activation • Using too much weight in the one arm standing palms in dumbbell press - start lighter to master the balance
