Exercises (Dumbell Press)
Active Lifestyle 
Consult your physician before starting any diet and/or exercise plan.
Muscles Worked
Shoulders or Deltoids,
Upper Arms (back) or Triceps
Position and Movement
Sitting on a bench with your feet on the floor, hold a dumbell in each hand. The weights in your hands should be positioned at the sides of your head with your arms bent at nearly 90 degrees. Extend your arms up, gradually bringing the weights close together. Slowly return the weights back down until your arms are bent at nearly a 90-degree angle.
Tip
At the top of the movement, keep your elbows slightly bent to avoid locking them.
