Matrix Rotating Shoulder Press With Dumbbells
How to Do
How to Do Matrix Rotating Shoulder Press With Dumbbells
The matrix rotating shoulder press with dumbbells should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the matrix rotating shoulder press with dumbbells.

2. As you twist your shoulders, press the dumbbells overhead, ending with your palms facing front at the top of the press.
3. Return to the starting position by reversing.
Movement

3. First, perform an alternating press straight overhead as shown.
4. Next, perform alternating presses side to side (approx. 30 degrees out) as shown.
5. Next, lean back through the kinetic chain with the knee bent to at least 20 degrees and press in at a backwards angle.
