Another workout question
Posted on 5/20/14 at 9:23 pm

Is the "Arnold Press" pretty much the same movement as the "Swimmers Press"?
Also, is this a good shoulder movement to do by itself for someone who's just getting into strength training with modest goals or is it better to work the anterior, lateral, and posterior delts separately.
Thanks for any advice

I always considered it an advanced move. Stick to the basics if you're just starting.

just starting
I suppose I am. Just finished the Power 90 workout which incorporated the Swimmers Press. Completing that has me very motivated to continue and "advance" somewhat with more strength training

Well man, I've worked out for a long time. In my experience basic moves and real good form tend to make all the difference. Not a whole lot of hardware up in your shoulders anyway so sophisticated moves may do more harm than good. Give the Arnold presses a shot. But don't discount a regular shoulder press with strict form.

I suggest you do standing shoulder presses or push presses only for your shoulders. Hit bench twice per week and on day of standing shoulder presses and you will see great gains far better thn isolation exercises
