Shoulder Press

Today's workout is the Shoulder Press.

Shoulder Press 5-5-5-3-3-3

The reps of 5 should be around 60% to 65% of your 1RM. The reps of 3 should be around 75% to 80% of your 1RM. During this workout prepare yourself mentally to move heavy weight.

Some tips to remember when executing the shoulder press;

Stance= hip width
hands just outside the shoulders
tight midsection
elbows down and in front of the bar
full grip, thumbs aroud the bar
drive through the heels, keep the whole body rigid
