Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Lever Seated Single Arm Shoulder Press.
The lever seated single arm shoulder press uses a plate-loaded or selectorized shoulder press machine to target each shoulder independently. Training one arm at a time allows greater focus on the pressing shoulder and helps even out strength imbalances between sides.
The Lever Seated Single Arm Shoulder Press is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
