ARNOLD’S DUMBBELLS PRESS
Arnold Schwarzenegger, being a perfectionist in training, was looking for a way to work his shoulders as effectively as possible. Dissatisfied with the results of the usual dumbbell press, he experimented with various techniques. As a result, he developed his own version the Arnold bench press. By adding wrist rotation, he created an exercise that purposefully works out all three bundles of deltoid muscles, giving the shoulders volume and relief. Arnold understood that broad shoulders were the key to an athletic V-shaped silhouette, so he sought to find an exercise that would maximize the deltoid muscles.
The Arnold bench press is a variant of the dumbbell bench press, in which the dumbbells rotate during lifting. At the bottom, the palms face the body, and as the dumbbells rise, the hands turn outward, so that at the top, the palms are facing forward. This rotation engages more muscle fibers in the shoulders, making the exercise more effective. The Arnold bench primarily loads the anterior and middle bundles of the deltoid muscles. Rotating dumbbells also engages the supraspinatus muscle (part of the rotator cuff of the shoulder). In addition, the trapezius muscles, triceps and core muscles work as stabilizers.
WHAT ARE YOU BUYING
Do not be mistaken, believing that power sports are simple and accessible, and they can be mastered independently, without the participation of specialists. They are no less likely to be injured than when skiing if you do not have knowledge of movement physiology and proper exercise technique. Your body is an extremely complex system that requires careful and precise approach. Therefore, in our videos it is necessary to highlight:
- Fundamentals of exercise physiology
- Description of the features of the target muscle groups
- Details of the movement technique
- Tempo, rhythm, time under load
- The number of sets and repetitions per exercise, taking into account your characteristics
- Rest time and rules between sets
- Typical errors
- Safety precautions
- Breathing technique
- Mental focus on the phases of muscle work
