Shoulder Press on Standing Calf Machine

[Teddy-G]

The exercise is pretty self explanatory. You press the weight overhead on a standing calf raise machine. It doesn't go directly overhead, but more of a diagonal up and forward direction.

I tried it today and it felt good. It's a very different angle and it also hits the triceps really hard.

Anyone ever tried this and know of the pros/cons of the exercise?

I usually do those after im finished with my cable curls using the giant lat bar. If the lat bar isnt available for curls, i use the olympic bar inside the squat rack.

Ah, shot in the dark here.... But you're not a fan are you?

ive tried them a few times as a great pump. just light on weight and just kept going until i was fatigued.
