If you are like me, then you like being as efficient as possible with your workouts. That's why I love combination exercises that work multiple muscle groups.
The curl to press is a great way to work to work your biceps and shoulders. Take a look at the video and instructions below for details on proper form.
Instructions:
- Begin in a standing position with a dumbbell in each hand. Your arms should be hanging at your sides with your palms facing forward
- Curl the weights up. Do not use momentum or flex through the shoulder, instead use a controlled motion
- Execute the pressing movement by extending the arm, flexing and abducting the shoulder to rotate the arm as you press above your head
- Pause at the top of the motion before reversing the movement to return to the starting position
- Complete three to four sets of 8-15 repetitions
