| Overhead Lifts | The Overhead Lift is a functional strength exercise that targets the shoulders, upper back, and arms while also engaging the core for stability. It helps improve your ability to lift objects overhead safely in daily life.
Step 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Hold a light dumbbell, water bottle, or similar object in each hand at shoulder height, palms facing forward or inward.
Step 2: Engage your core and keep your back straight. Press both arms upward until your hands are directly above your head, elbows fully extended but not locked.
Step 3: Pause briefly at the top, then slowly lower the weights back to shoulder level with control.
Step 4: Perform 2–3 sets of 10–12 repetitions, using a light weight that allows full range of motion without straining.
This exercise builds strength in the shoulders and upper arms while improving control and posture for overhead tasks like reaching shelves or lifting objects. | | Explore More Fitness |
