Smith Machine Shoulder Press

The Smith machine shoulder press is an effective exercise for targeting the shoulder muscles. Here’s how to do it:

1. Position the barbell at shoulder height and sit on a bench with back support under the Smith machine.
2. Grip the bar with an overhand grip, hands slightly wider than shoulder-width apart.
3. Unrack the bar and press it upward until your arms are fully extended above your head.
4. Pause briefly at the top, then slowly lower the bar back to shoulder height.
5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
