Your personal comfort will determine which hole. Adjust the Press
ArmtooneoftheholesintheSHOULDERposition.Finally,adjust
the seat so that the press handles are at shoulder height. Sit back in
the seat so that the seat back forces a forward lean. The idea is to
align your body with the path of motion of the press arm, so that you
are actually pushing the press handles overhead. Grab the handles
with an overhand grip and press away from your shoulders. Do not
lock out your elbows. Return slowly.
Primary muscles worked: Deltoids (shoulder), Triceps (back of arm).
