Wide Grip Shoulders

Sit comfortably, ideally on a incline bench to give your back support, placing your feet firmly on the floor, grasping the bar with your palms facing forward, double shoulder width apart.

Smoothly lift the weight vertically, taking the weight directly above your shoulder with your arms straight, keeping your back straight. Lower down under control and repeat for desired amount of reps.

You may decide to lift the weight slightly out to your front, in order to also work your chest muscles, however avoid this method if unconditioned to weight lifting, as it will place stress on the lower back.

Avoid arching the spine, or driving up with your legs at the start of your lift, focus on using your feet to fix your position ,pushing your back into the bench.
