overhead presses
Lifting weights skyward
Overhead presses are weightlifting exercises where you push a weight upward from shoulder height until your arms are fully extended above your head.
The movement primarily targets the shoulders, triceps, and upper chest.
Overhead presses can be performed standing or seated, with a barbell, dumbbells, or kettlebells: I do overhead presses twice a week to build shoulder strength.
