I decided to stand, rather than sit, during my shoulder presses today. Standing adds a different element to the lift as it requires you to keep your core tight during the entire movement. Instead of simple hitting your delts, you will actually get a little abdomen and lower back work as well. I just needed to be careful and not thrust the weight up with my hips. This is a shoulder exercise primarily and not a push press/jerk. Good work tonight.
