Overhead Press Narrow Grip - Machine

Set the machine to your height by adjusting the seat height so that your hands are in line with your chin for your starting position (if unsure ask an instructor).

Place your hands on the narrow grips with your palms facing towards each other. Slowly push the weight up above your head until your arms are straight, but not locked out, and then lower in a slow controlled manner until your elbows reach just below shoulder level. At this point press back up again.
