If you're going to do
If you're going to do any pressing, snatches, jerks or even bench press, you need to sufficiently warm up your shoulders for optimal performance. Here's one of my favorite warm up exercises to perform called the 'prone angel.'

__________________________________________
Start by lying on your stomach with your hands positioned by your hips and palms facing down. With your elbows locked in a straight position, pull your hands off the ground as you simultaneously squeeze your shoulder blades together. This motion of shoulder extension is great at activating the rhomboid muscles of your mid back that help control your shoulder blade.
While keeping your shoulder blades pulled together and depressed, rotate your hands upward into what will end up looking like a back squat hold position. Next, push your hands above your head as far as you can (this will mimic the motion of a standing barbell press). After holding for 3 seconds, lower your arms back down before rotating them to the original palms-down position and then returning back to the hips.
Recommended sets/ reps: 2-3 sets of 10 reps
