Instructions

Anti-Gravity Press

1

Place a bar on the ground behind the head of an incline bench.

2

Lay on the bench face down. With a pronated grip, pick the barbell up from the floor. Flex the elbows, performing a reverse curl to bring the bar near your chest. This will be your starting position.

3

To begin, press the barbell out in front of your head by extending your elbows. Keep your arms parallel to the ground throughout the movement.

4

Return to the starting position and repeat to complete the set.

Kettlebell Seated Press

1

Sit on the floor and spread your legs out comfortably.

2

Clean one kettlebell to your shoulder.

3

Press the kettlebell up and out until it is locked out overhead. Return to the starting position.

Verdict

Both exercises target the shoulders. Anti-Gravity Press is a beginner exercise using barbell, while Kettlebell Seated Press is intermediate and uses kettlebells. Choose Anti-Gravity Press if you're looking for a more accessible option, or Kettlebell Seated Press for a greater challenge.
