Bodybow Shoulder Press Seated Instructions

  1. Start by sitting on a chair or bench with your back straight and feet flat on the floor.
  2. Grasp the bodybow with both hands, palms facing forward, and bring it up to shoulder level.
  3. Keep your elbows bent and in line with your shoulders, and your wrists straight.
  4. Press the bodybow up overhead, extending your arms fully without locking your elbows.
  5. Pause briefly at the top, feeling the tension in your shoulder muscles.
  6. Lower the bodybow back down to shoulder level, maintaining control and stability.
  7. Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Bodybow Shoulder Press Seated Tips

  1. Position yourself on the bodybow by sitting with your back straight, feet flat on the ground, and knees bent at a 90-degree angle. This stable base will allow you to engage your core and maintain proper form throughout the exercise.
  2. Hold the bodybow handles with an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart. This grip will ensure stability and control as you press the bodybow overhead, engaging your shoulder muscles effectively.
  3. As you press the bodybow overhead, focus on keeping your elbows slightly in front of your body. This position will activate your deltoids, the main muscles responsible for the shoulder press, and prevent unnecessary strain on your joints.
  4. Engage your core muscles by drawing your belly button in towards your spine. This will not only stabilize your body during the exercise but also enhance the overall effectiveness of the shoulder press, promoting better posture and balance.
  5. Remember to breathe throughout the movement. Inhale as you lower the bodybow back to the starting position and exhale as you press it overhead. This rhythmic breathing will provide oxygen to your muscles, increasing endurance and helping you maintain focus and control.
