Hey guys! My second video I subbed (just a few minutes ago). Please don't spare me and post/give as much feedback as you like  Note that this has been released I February, I just started subbing all my videos recently and will try to have them subbed all at some point (lots of work though...  ) Anyway in this video I'm talking about the Dumbbell Press and its form. I also touch the well-known ROM debate, which is all about whether to go below horizontal or not. Last but not least I try to explain why it's called the dumbbell press and what a military press or (overhead) press is exactly 
Click the red CC to enable English subtitles. If subtitles are not shown you have them turned OFF! Keep 'em coming! |

Yep, that's me. Why are you asking? Because I didn't know if that was you or not. I thought it was possible that you get these videos from somewhere and just add the English subtitles yourself. |

I think the safest and best way to dumbbell press is to pretend that you're holding a barbell. By doing this, you can get a full range of motion and your arms will nicely fall into the starting position with your palm facing the ceiling/sky. You can injure your shoulders when you try to keep your upper arm and forearm in line with your neck while going through a full ROM.

You can injure your shoulders when you try to keep your upper arm and forearm in line with your neck while going through a full ROM. Why would the dumbbell press be dangerous at all? That can only be the case if you're using terrible form and can't keep your upper body tight throughout the motion. Behind-The-Neck Presses are a different story, but regular BB and DB presses aren't bad or dangerous for your shoulders per se |

Personally, I liked the video. I think your form was pretty much perfect. I only have one suggestion, and I'm not sure if you addressed it in your video or not because I didn't see any subtitles. :/ I always like getting multiple views of an exercise when someone is demonstrating it (usually a front and side view) just so people who may not be as experienced know how their body should be aligned and how the exercise should look from all angles. Some exercises, such as a Squat, have common problems that only one angle of the exercise cannot address, so that's my suggestion for future videos.

Thanks for the suggestions! That is a pretty good idea and I'd love to give out even more information. The problem is though that I have a huge bandwagon if haters and flamers that get at me whenever I make a longer video (not even speaking about my size, but you know how youtube is - either you are bulky as hell or you're out ^^). I'll keep that into account though! Thanks! |
