Dual Action Press
Some gyms will have modern gym equipment that will enable each arm to work independently, thus giving the user the benefits of free-weights, by eliminating the fact that the stronger arm will be doing most of the lifting.

Commence the exercise holding the outer hand grips, with your palms facing forward, feet wide and placed firmly on the floor to aid stability and to keep your back pushed back into the bench.
Smoothly lift your hands vertically, taking the weight directly above your shoulder with your arms straight, keeping your back pushed into the bench throughout.
Lower down under control and repeat for desired amount of reps.
Avoid arching the spine, leaning over to your sides (if lifting with one arm), or driving up with your legs at the start of your lift, focus on the muscles you want to work, the shoulders.
By lifting with just one arm at a time, you will be able to see the difference in strength between your two arms.
