Weight Lifting Exercises for Beginners : Learn the Dumbbell Shoulder Press Weight Lifting Exercise

[RAMistheMANchannel]

I lift things up and put them down.

[ThePowerBanana45]

@iPodiPadReviews If you actually read all the previous comments that's the exact point I was making ...

[monsterabyss1992]

im half his size and 25lbs is to light

[tarkanjazio]

45 people were rocking around

[ediot6969]

If i used 25 lbs it would take me like 75 reps to get to failure and have a pump.

[Mr71PUMA]

Finally someone who demonstrates a beggining workout with a beginner weight unlike the showoffs who sit there and shoulder press 180 and think beginers should do the same ....simple and effective!!!!

[SyahTRemc2]

now im starting 15lbs, next week 20lbs :)

[tedrickeinstein]

Andyhargleis and newyears, can u guys take your silly arguments somewhere else, gosh STFU and just watch the videos

[DoubleAgent244]

if he uses 25lbs then i must have to use -25lb

[cbdesade]

@DoubleAgent244 Your logic is flawless.

[trip3l2008]

No jokes but im 15 and i do 25 Pounders -_-

[Ak47x360]

@trip3l2008 He's just demonstrating, so don't flatter yourself

[ThePowerBanana45]

@trip3l2008 I'm 15 and do 44, no big deal

[trip3l2008]

@ThePowerBanana45 and?

[ThePowerBanana45]

@trip3l2008 Isn't that the point I was just making? :S

[trip3l2008]

@ThePowerBanana45 what?

[BXAssasinatorXS]

@trip3l2008 Obviously he can do more

[dercookimonster]

Scott herman fitness videos are so much better, he explains the proper form in more detail. His video for should press should be somewhere there ----->

[Drake00000010]

Am i suppose to do this until i cant do anymore?

[MastahMich]

@Drake00000010

Do about 3/4 sets, but only in the last set you wanna go to failure. So first set can be 12 reps, next one 10, next 8 and last one 6 heavy reps.

[danih1980]

I would suggest that individuals keep the arms slightly forward of 180 degree to prevent shoulder impingement

[lawlsnax]

0ole dukenukem looking head ass

[Fennecfox10]

One would think to get that big you would do more weight. I do 30lb. (3sets of 10) and I'm much smaller. I would think you get a different muscle than what he has with a lot of repetitions

[soldier135799]

love how every noob thinks weights are the key to being a fighting machine, just like a tank if you dont know how to drive it then all you can do is sit inside it and have an advantage.

[tijnmans]

My ass this guy presses only 25 pounds XD!

[soldier135799]

@tijnmans are you retarded? he said he uses small weights for this exercise.

[simson99w]

Thank you~

[HST3081fullBREDtonga]

@AndyHarglesis far out you weigh 205lb and your only 13. You must be one fat hefa. Imagine when you turn 26 you'll be tipping 410lbs of pure unadulterated fat. Fatty want another cream cake??

[RedSandDuster]

@HST3081fullBREDtonga Ignore the f@g, he just wants attention..

[DEADRIE]

can someone say PEROXIDE

[EpicSickGuy]

Hey I have Played You're Game xD xD

[manny8991]

@scorpgul very true

[AndyHarglesis]

HORRID FORM!

I can demonstrate WAY better form with REAL weights, unlike this homo!

[AndyHarglesis]

LOL I'm 13, 203lbs of solid, doping free strength and I can one arm shoulder press 150lb dumbbells for 2 reps! :)

No drugs!

[ares12790]

@AndyHarglesis fuck you. Utter bullshit if i ever read any

[AndyHarglesis]

@ares12790 I never lie. :P

Everything I said is 100% REAL.

[christlicker]

@AndyHarglesis Unless you count bullshit as a drug! :)

[newyears912]

@AndyHarglesis only 203 lb and lifting 150 with each arm? Man i could kick your ass!

[HDx89]

@AndyHarglesis nice little fantasy world you live in.

[AndyHarglesis]

@HDx89 It's called reality. :P

Deal with it.

[HDx89]

@AndyHarglesis how abt you share a video with us showing your awesome strength?

[scorpgul]

A lot of cunts bitching about the weight he lifts LMAO. I think you guys are watching the wrong video. Go watch powerlifting videos if you want to see biblical weights

[locomoco453]

they should one vid that teaches u all this stuff

[dickoos]

he pumps steds like a twat

[TheWali13]

can you do this standing up?

[crazyzombie99]

@TheWali13 you can but when ur a beast i think the weight gets so heavy you have to sit down

[wkakar21]

MR.KENNEDY ........KENNEDY

[kshuxxx]

25 lbs? im half his size and i do 9 reps with 82 lbs :|

[jamends1220]

@kshuxxx It's for beginners. Not to mention the fact you're suposed to start off light and work your way up with each set to get a warm up, avoid injury and to make the most out of working out. Doing just your maximum isn't beneficial and you'll end up hurting yourself delaying your next exercise session due to recovery time.

[RushIsMyLifeFool]

@kshuxxx what jamend1220 said, not to mention in what gym are the dumbbells not even?? 82 pounds??

[channmans]

@kshuxxx dumbass!

[scorpgul]

@kshuxxx this is for beginners dumbass. Obviously the man lifts 10 times the weight you lift -.-

[2007killa]

HAIL TO THE KING BABY, I CALL THIS THE SHOULDER PISS PRESS MOTHERFUCKER

[frozenwalkway]

dam it these ads are too short to take a shit between

[henchdan1]

i noticed u brought the dumbells further down than what ive seen in other videos, other videos tell me to keep the dumbell height so that ur arms are parallell with ur shoulders (in other words not bringin the dumbells so far down) because it keeps the tension on them...true?

[ry4nx]

wait, so ur shoulders can grow even if u dont use heavy weight?

[DreadfulControversy]

He choose 25's because anything higher would destroy his credibility as an instructor as he wouldn't be able to even demonstrate let alone lift it.

[millgiass]

@DreadfulControversy Is it 25 per dumbell or 25 per weight? Cause if it's per weight then those things are 50lbs each right? Plus this is a guide for beginners. And that is a pretty good starting point for someone with noodle arms I'd suppose.

[DreadfulControversy]

@millgiass 25 per weight? What are you talking about? Do they look like 50's? Those are 25 pounds, wouldn't be surprised if it was 20, as small as they are.

[millgiass]

@DreadfulControversy I just wondered cause I have puny muscles and am really outta shape and I can do 25 no problem. I figured with arms as big as his he'd HAVE to be doing more than me.

[DreadfulControversy]

@millgiass Probably used it for demonstration purposed. I'm sure he can do more. Big arms doesn't equal big weights though. There's different categories of weightlifting.

[sselemaNrM]

I usually do it behind the ear. Is that okay?

[Martin07951]

Is this the same as the military dumpbell press ?

[antho22wateva]

mmmmMMMIISSSSTTEERRRRRRRRRR Ke... ANNDERRSOOONNNNNNNNNNNN  ...ander son

[gregsimson]

isnt this bad for the rotator cuff?

[RevZman]

You say don't use too much weight, but you know we're just gonna go ahead and use too much weight anyway, lol.

[TheChainer1234]

when i do shoulder presses my left elbow always click, does it mean the weight is too heavy?

[Rawbeh]

@TheChainer1234 nope. maybe your elbow's fucked.

[daniells71]

@TheChainer1234 If it also clicks when u you use lighter comfortable weight then your elbow is jacked up. If not then you are using too much weight or going too high or too low..

[TheChainer1234]

@daniells71 I think it should be ok then, the elbow is fine when i use light weight, I think i should train my arms separately then, because my left is alot weaker than right. thanks

[daniells71]

@TheChainer1234 Just be careful, joints take a long time to heal and sometimes you don't feel the damage till after you've rested.

[TheChainer1234]

when i do shoulder presses my left elbow always click, does it mean the weight is too heavy?

[TheChainer1234]

when i do shoulder presses my left elbow always clicks, does it mean the weight is too heavy?

[KeizTheBaas]

Looks kinda funny, such big arms with so lil weights.

[six80ususus]

No this is not for chest actually. He is leaning maybey 2 degress away from upright due to the seat

[864presentsMTM]

This is for fucking chest this guy is a dumb fuck.

[OrlyYhRly]

@864presentsMTM

are you idiot?

[daniells71]

@864presentsMTM nope, he just perfect. look up professional body builders on utube.

[864presentsMTM]

@daniells71 shut the hell up

[TheManofConviction]

@864presentsMTM LOL

[Vaginaattori]

@864presentsMTM get your facts straight dickweed, its for the chest if done laying down

[iDekonu]

I thought you aren't supposed to touch the weight at the top because it causes instability or gives a small rest period

[AAFroes]

This guy has BALLS OF STEEEEEEL!

[express375]

Capital A!!

What about the Y,M,C??????

[workh4rd]

He is lifting the two 25 lbs dumbells like feathers.

[andy1992uk]

@workh4rd That is a very light weight, I do 18 kg shoulder press. For his size, he could do 30kg+.

I find the shoulder press, almost impossible after I have dumbbell bench. My arms actually refuse to go upright but want to go forward.

[102BananaSplit]

@andy1992uk Erm why would you do a chest workout and a shoulder workout in the same day... Really not as efficient as doing them on separate days.

[PigeonToedShawdy]

Actually Thats Hardcore Holly

[MadnessJuan]

Holy shit~

[ROB6ZOMBIE666]

Holy SHIT! ITS SHUT THE FUCK UP COPY CATS FROM THE OTHER VIDEO!!!

[ThatAussieFamily]

Really appreciate these short informative clips...

[FlamingArrow850]

HOYL SHIT ITS THE SANDMAN

[JAGIhnk]

put sunglass

[tbowles08]

Why are my arms sore rather than my shoulders? I mean they were sore after the first day, but not since, and I've been doing these for 3 weeks.

[EZPZLEMONSKWEEZE]

This actually makes my back sore instead of my shoulders >.>

[VonLycan]

thanks for the tips, should come in handy

[EliasCollins]

Ppl Go check out my profile....im losing weight for the second time...I once lost 130 lbs gained it all back plus 20 pounds...I just want to show ppl on youtube that its not hard to lose the weight...well go check out my videos..THANKS bye

[TheTrioTales]

@EliasCollins hhahahahhaa BOW! ya sucked me in hahaha

[Sindre961]

[ChrisHendrix1988]

@Sindre961 lmao greatest comment ever on youtube

[jakewwefan]

@Sindre961

Lol I was thinking who the hell does this guy look like!?

[KerryDoan]

@Sindre961 IVE GOT BARBELLS OF STEEL

[FlexHotelExpect]

@Sindre961 dude I never laughed so hard at a youtube comment in my life!!!

[gardongabaron]

@Sindre961

lllllllllllloooooooooooooooool­llllllllll

[screwed124816]

ooooh okay thats what i was doing wrong. I was doing a LOWERCASE a.

[IOWNYOURTURFNOW95]

@screwed124816 lol

[derwentalia]

wow...you guys are morons. of course he can do heavier. its for a how to video ya nuteaters to show proper form, not to show off his limits. holy fuck get off the roids so ur brains can unshrivel.

[newb4714]

@derwentalia i think their just upset because they have a 2 inch dick from all the roids

[DrRocksotheClown]

@derwentalia hey everybody i keep reading the boooks and l;ike,are behind the neck presses considered shoulder ..or upper BACK excercises?should iud o them with shoulders or back?

[mrpapafunky7879]

@DrRocksotheClown do both..why not? u lazy?

[pepsi89]

good but u dont bring the dumbbells lower than your elbow, u get no like nor dislike from me big guy

[sodwalls]

you go to high man and that brings your tries into it u dnt need to lock out on this excersise

[Stone2503]

I came here to watch an ad, and some video started to play afterwards.....?

[mardokblack]

QUESTION: if i do this exercise while standing is it good or bad?

[notenuftime1]

25 pounds gives him a nice workout...bullshit. He looks like he could lift a baby elephant

[Pube83]

@notenuftime1

No doubt, I go up to 45lb dumbbells (with strict form) and consider myself more of a beginner. I start with 25's.

[TheXV22]

FUCK ADS !!!

[acula1982]

from watching this guy it seems i dont need as much weight as id been told in the gym. The trainer there had me using 18kg, 20kg & 25kg depending on the exercise. nearly killed me

[murozman]

This is one scary guy.

[PatrikDC]

@murozman Really? I found his voice calm and reassuring.

[murozman]

@PatrikDC I'm not saying he's bad or anything. He's an excellent trainer. He's just physically intimidating and let's say I wouldn't wanna piss him off!

[velvetpearls]

good movement, but you should actually not arch your back too much as it stresses the lower back

[bodybuildingmethod]

Yes, it is true that you should be increasing your weight after your comfortable with 25 lbs.

For more info about the shoulder press, check out: youtube.com/watch?v=jobSBeyWuL­M

[daevildude45]

@bodybuildingmethod how much is 25 lbs in kilograms

[ShiningStealth]

@daevildude45

about 12kg

[Hellfire7896321]

@ShiningStealth 11kg.

[brumbloke]

I found the best way to gain muscle is to use progressivly heavy weights for 6 to 10 reps. Six sets is enough. Also a high protein diet is a must. I have been bodybuilding for only a year and my max for the shoulder press is 95kg for 6 reps



[DreadfulControversy]

@brumbloke If you're pressing 200 pounds on each arm for 6 reps after one year then where is the proof? I find that hard to believe. 200 pounds? After one year? I'd have to see it to believe it kiddo.

[RodTalon0000]

Im sorry, i just dont see how he could get so big pressing 25lbs... Thats like me using 5lbs, id loose weight and get toner

[agustinegabriel]

@RodTalon0000 for all you know he only uses the 25lb to maintain his body instead of making it bigger

[canuckeeeeAK]

never go below 90 degrees, you;'ll fuck up your shoulder

[brumbloke]

@tionlover guess you never heard of adblock plus, you noob.

[bawhite125]

@tionlover Easy Roider

[E6647R]

fuck expertvillage.

im starting to workout my shoulders and and i was doing 4 sets 35's the other day and was not heavy.

[chesterdgreat91]

@E6647R why are saying that thing.. he was a trainer in that gym... and the standard set was 3 (3 set 12 rep).. and your doing 4 sets??? and he said that choose the dumble that was comfortable to use... he choose that dumble JUST FOR DEMONSTRATION....

[luk3r3volution]

Listening to the Skeptics Guide to the Universe the other day they mentioned that the studies are in. It's not heavy weights that build muscle, it's working the muscle until failure. The old chestnut of less reps on heavier weights builds just didn't survive the scientific studies. Pushing to failure was the way to build muscle.

[PatrikDC]

@luk3r3volution The study was only done on 15 people though, no? That's hardly a big enough pool to come to a scientific conclusion.

[komjong]

A Black trainer would of used heavier weights, like maybe 70Lbs or better. Where i come from what he's lifting with is called "b!tch weight". Most guys like myself would be too ashamed to lift anything that light. I think my grandmother can lift that albeit she is devoid of bulging muscles.

[captainSTROO]

@komjong Wow we are real impressed. Maybe he's just trying to show proper technique and not trying to impress anyone. You really doubt he couldn't life more than 25s?

[captainSTROO]

@komjong Wow we are real impressed. Maybe he's just trying to show proper technique and not trying to impress anyone. You really doubt he couldn't life more than 25s? A black trainer probably would have used more weight because he'd be a stupid monkey that wants to impress the other monkey's because it has low self esteem and wants to advance in the gang. God, childish people like you make me sick and childish myself.

[komjong]

@captainSTROO LOL@monkey...hahaha white people resemble monkeys, Black people resemble God.

[rovan1]

@komjong If i did believe in a god why would god be black? Explain your theory ^^

[PatrikDC]

@komjong We're apes.

[PatrikDC]

@captainSTROO I was with you till you went all racist on me...

[captainSTROO]

@PatrikDC I'm not racist man, I apologize if I came across that way, the commenter I was responding to brought race into the mix and I was just using his vocab. Sorry. 1 world. 1 love

[Ak47x360]

@komjong He is obviously using this weight for demonstation purposes you dumbass

[usukker]

why he useing too light weights?!!

[captainSTROO]

@usukker why you speak too shitty English and don't understand he's not trying to impress but educate. He's using low weights to show proper form and to not intimidate people. He doesn't want people to pick up 90 lb weights trying to imitate him and hurt themselves.

[usukker]

@captainSTROO yes. he shoule say that in the video :@

[PatrikDC]

@captainSTROO this.

[lolboya]

does weight training affects height growth ?

[tehelol1]

@lolboya No, that is actually a myth. When you start lifting weights, your muscles need to expand and your bones also. Because of that, your body will expand and grow. Hope the advice helps.

[tazss159]

Isn't it wrong to lock you'r elbows ???

[EroSeninLucas]

0:40 crack!

[gigololounging]

It appears this instructor has built an attractive, muscled body (except for the chicken neck) for no purpose other than appearance and I would caution all beginning lifters to consider what sports they enjoy when embarking on an exercise program.

Take for an example Schwarzenegger, a 7 time Mr. Olympia. Consider how awkward he looked when he ran in his movie roles. On the other hand, look at the "useful" muscularity of someone like Randy Couture. Think "utility" when working out.

[scorpgul]

@gigololounging ROFLMAO oh really Mr Muscle Guru and what about you? What have you accomplished that you can share with the rest of us. Please teach us inexperienced beginners how to lift? -.-

[CoLdsnipa]

what is a good weight for beginners?

[MrSquish22]

@CoLdsnipa To get the most effective workout, and to avoid injury... you should always start with a super small weight and get good form. Gradually increase the weight each session. If you ever start to break form, STOP the exercise. Lower the weight if you need to, but do not attempt to push through with bad form. That is the quickest way to injure yourself.

[robertsonak01]

@CoLdsnipa

start at the bottom like 15 lbs and then find a weight that challenging for you

[gigololounging]

@robertsonak01 It's simplistic to say "do 15 reps". Everyone responds differently and only through experimentation can one find optimal growth/endurance/recuperation etc. Good to mix it up. Don't train just because it's Thursday and bench and back day. Workout when you feel motivated and such should be pleasurable, not drudgery.  I see too many guys overtrain and do too much...and like this man, for whatever reason, neglect to strengthen their necks. Dudes, a powerful neck is a must.

[PatrikDC]

@gigololounging Why? Trying to build up immunity to a surprise neck assault?

[gigololounging]

@CoLdsnipa Afterappropriate warmup, go for 3 sets of 5 reps with good control of the weight. Just do Squats/Deadlifts, Bench, Pullups/Rows. Isolating the tiny bicep muscle as shown in this video for beginners is ridiculous. Spend your time doing basic power building movements that employ numerous muscles.

[nomitata]

i kinda liked this kinect soccer game advertisement

[gjvgy]

He's not doing his max he's only doing 25s to show you guys how to do it

[proboarder123456789]

wow no arm hair 

[MrSquish22]

@proboarder123456789 Most body builders Shave their body hair. =) Shows off better definition n' stuff.

[13andincrediblycut]

I'm 13, drug-free, and my max shoulder-press is 280lbs, or two 130lb dumbbells for 4 reps using full-depth at a bodyweight of 201 and 6'4". :)

[MixingLaboratory]

@13andincrediblycut And I'm Jesus.

[tinky508]

@13andincrediblycut just because you can doesn't mean it is good for you you can still build big muscles if that is your goal at a slow and steady pace. don't forget that your body is growing and can be easily damaged for life if you put too much weight to fast.

[BigSamFoSho]

@tinky508 don't take "13andincrediblycut" seriously, he's a troll he fucks around and try to piss off people.

[CTU4105]

@13andincrediblycut and pigs can fly. and like anyone cares if your drug free.

[theBrownman28]

@13andincrediblycut OMG congratulations seriously thats cool and all but NO ONE CARES Im 18 years old a senior in high school and Im in the DEP to become a US Marine and im going to bootcamp in july NO ONE Cares about what im doing or what you can do so stop going on every single workout video and commenting about how much of this or that you can do
