Instructions
1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, and your arms raised with elbows bent, so your hands are near ear level; palms facing forward as if you were preparing to press a barbell overhead. This is your starting position.
2. Engage your core and keep your body rigid.
3. Simulate the pressing movement, extending your arms upwards, without clasping any weight, until they are fully extended overhead.
4. Pause at the top of the motion, squeezing your shoulder muscles.
5. Lower your hands back down to the starting position near ear level while maintaining control and tension in your shoulders and arms as shown in the images.
6. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions and sets, ensuring to keep the movement controlled and using a full range of motion.
Note: This exercise simulates a military press movement without the use of weights. It focuses on the contraction and strengthening of the shoulder muscles through a full range of motion.
