Generally, dumbbell shoulder presses can be done at a slightly lower angle on a bench.
However, you still have to push up, which makes the upper pecs engage in the movement.
Well, with this shoulder press machine, the upper chest is pretty much taken out of the equation, helping us set the delts on fire.
