See-Saw Press (Alternating Side Press)

See-Saw Press (Alternating Side Press)

Exercise Data
Main Muscle Worked: Shoulders
Other Muscles Worked: Triceps,Abdominals
Equipment: Dumbbell
Mechanics Type: Compound

Tips: A seemingly simple exercise that jumps up and bites back at you. The exercise can be performed with virtually any form of resistance so equipment should never be a problem. The movement starts with the weight held at chest/shoulder level and palms facing towards you (like an Arnold Press). As you raise your one hand, twist it inwards while simultaneously bending from your hip to your opposite side. With the weight fully extended and you bent over, begin the movement to the other side. A powerful exercise of yesteryear that will thicken the torso-up. For those who enjoy the side press this will take it to the next level.
