Devil press: How to do it and the benefits for building full-body strength

Woman performing a press up with dumbbells

To do the devil press, you pretty much combine a chest-to-floor burpee with a dual dumbbell snatch, but it’s more technical than meets the eye. Get it right, and you’ll torch muscle groups across your entire body and build a stronger core. 

This high-intensity, full-body exercise is done using a set of the best adjustable dumbbells or kettlebells, or you could adopt the single-arm variation using one weight if you prefer to alternate. The devil press can typically be found in functional training and CrossFit workouts, not only to ramp up your heart rate and test your endurance but building strength as well.
