Sitting or standing can make a huge difference with your lifts. For shoulder presses, you’ll be more likely to lift much more weight when sitting instead of standing, since you can oftentimes push into the back of the seat (albeit subconsciously).
So next time you do lateral raises, or curls, or any move you tend to do seated, consider performing the same move standing. And vice versa. A simple adjustment like this can truly shock your body, leaving you much sorer then you’d normally be the next day.
For instance, consider doing barbell front raises while seated, or lateral raises while seated, which force you to use just your shoulder muscles by eliminating body english.
