Smith Standing Military Press
The Smith standing military press is an exercise that works your shoulder muscles. You do it while standing up inside a Smith machine, which helps hold the bar steady. It also uses your arm and back muscles. Because the bar moves in a straight line, it can be easier to learn than other presses, but you still need to stand strong and hold your body tight.
