THE DEVIL'S PRESS

 

Have you ever tried the Devil’s Press? It’s a great conditioning tool (and not as frightening as it sounds).

Start with a light pair of dumbbells until you get the movement down.

To warm up, do 5 burpees between your dumbbells to get used to the spacing on the ground (you’ll need room for your chest to hit the ground between the dumbbells). Then do 5 deadlifts with the dumbbell ensuring your back is flat on both the pick up and put down of the dumbbells. Finally, do 5 presses overhead to ensure you are locking your shoulders out completely at the top of each rep.

Now you’re ready to give them a try!

Burpee between the dumbbell and, as you stand, swing the dumbbell out in front of you and press them overhead. Use your hips for momentum. Be sure to keep your elbows bent a little to keep the dumbbell close to your body.

A few sets of 5 of these and you’ll begin to feel their power!
