Muscles aching yet? If not, give these a go!

Step 1

Starting Position: Stand tall with your chest out or sit on a chair holding your pot of choice in each hand at shoulder height with your palms facing away from you.

Step 2

Press the weights directly upwards until your arms are straight and the pots touch above your head.

Step 3

Slowly lower the weights back to the start position under control, pause, then start the next rep.

Step 4

Keep your back as straight as possible throughout the movement. Do as many reps as you can for 5 sets with 1 minute rests in between sets. 

You can also opt for a neutral grip (palms facing you) to conduct a hammer press.
