[Barbell press exercises deltoid muscles]

Hold the bar more comfortably with your hands slightly wider than shoulder width, and prepare to lift the barbell at shoulder height in front of your chest. Concentrate the strength of the anterior deltoid muscles and use as little assistance as possible from other parts of the body to push the barbell upward until the arms are fully extended.

Stop the barbell above your head. After about 1 second, slowly lower the barbell to the chest and shoulder height position in the ready position. Be careful not to sway your body during the movement.
