  • The Sotts press offers several benefits, including:
  • Shoulder strength and stability: The Sotts press places a significant demand on the shoulders, requiring them to stabilize and control the weight overhead. It targets the deltoids, rotator cuff muscles, and upper back, promoting improved shoulder strength and stability.
  • Mobility and flexibility: Performing the Sotts press requires a high degree of mobility and flexibility in the shoulders, wrists, and thoracic spine. Regular practice can help improve range of motion in these areas, enhancing overall mobility and flexibility.
  • Core activation: The Sotts press engages the core muscles throughout the movement, as they are required to maintain stability and proper posture. This exercise helps strengthen the core, which is important for overall strength and athletic performance.
  • Improved posture and body awareness: By performing the Sotts press, individuals develop body awareness and learn to maintain proper alignment and posture throughout the movement. This can translate into better posture during everyday activities and other exercises.
  • Sport-specific benefits: The Sotts press has specific applications for athletes involved in sports that require overhead strength, such as weightlifting, gymnastics, and overhead throwing sports. It can improve the stability and strength necessary for executing movements like overhead presses, snatches, and jerks.
