By admin

Irrespective of how huge your arms are, how protruding and firm your chest is, and how well built your back is, your upper body wouldn’t be adequately sculptured and thick without the presence of well toned and shaped shoulders. But unfortunately, many bodybuilders tend to under-train their shoulders during workouts mostly owing to the fact that they find it difficult in getting the right shoulder training techniques. A good number of men do admit to spending a tremendous amount of their workout time training their shoulders with little or no progress. Therefore this article will eloquently kick around and demonstrate a couple of outstanding shoulder workouts for massive shoulder gains. But before we get started, it’s pretty essential we get acquainted with the various muscles that make up the shoulders.

The human shoulder muscle comprises of three major muscles collectively known as deltoid. These three parts are known as the anterior deltoid, the lateral deltoid, and the posterior deltoid. It’s of sufficient importance to properly develop all three deltoids, because if one is underdeveloped, it will be pretty conspicuous, therefore, these three parts should be properly exercised in order to have well-built shoulders. The best shoulders workout has to hit all 3 shoulder muscles together and separately. To get the best of your shoulder workout exercises, its best you follow these best shoulder workouts that I will be dishing out.

 

Top 6 Best Shoulder Workout

 

Military Press

The military press is one of the shoulder workout programs that will help you develop your shoulder muscles, as its augments your frame by  adding enormous muscles to your shoulders. Start by resting the weight on your upper chest, and then gently press the bar directly upwards in line with your face to the point just before your elbows grapples. Return the weight back to its starting position while maintaining adequate control of the weight.

 

Upright barbell rows

The upright barbell row is perfect for building the lateral deltoid. Start by holding a barbell with a wide shoulder grip while standing with your feet a little wider than your shoulder’s width. With your shoulders down and chest out, push the barbell upwards until it is at arm’s length above your shoulders. Endeavor to always keep your elbows above your hands at all times. Hold this position for a couple of seconds after which you slower it back to its starting position.

 

 

 

Overhead squat

For increased stability in the shoulder muscles as well as the surrounding tissues, try out the overhead squat. Start by grabbing the barbell into an overhead position. Maintain control of the bar while squatting with it.

 

Dumbbell shoulder press

One of the outstanding things about this workout technique is that it explodes the shoulder muscles. This mind-blowing exercise can be carried out while seated or even while standing.  To try out the dumbbell shoulder press while seated, sit on an upright chair or bench at home or at your local gym. Lift two dumbbells and gently pull them to your shoulders while keeping your feet shoulder-width apart. Ensure that your elbows are directly beneath the dumbbells, then carefully and gently raise them upwards above your head, after which you lower the dumbbells to the original position. Continue doing this in reps while maintaining control. The same procedure is applicable while standing.

 

Hang clean and press

The hang clean and press exercise is a shoulder exercise similar to the high pull exercise. To do this, stand up with your feet spread far apart. Grab the bar parallel to your feet. While holding the bar along your body against your thighs, lift the weight. When lifting the weight, ensure its back tight and flat chin is up. The ankles should be extended with the knees flexed if you wish to have a clean, hang. To complete the exercise, the bar should be lowered back down to the shoulders and the thighs to its original position.

 

Bent over Lateral Raises

To get started, lift two dumbbells. Then bend your waist with your feet shoulder wide apart. Make sure you keep your knees bent to avoid injuring your lower back. Gently raise the dumbbell upwards and in a semicircular position. Maintain control of the weights while holding the position for a couple of few seconds.  Finally, lower the dumbbell back to its starting position. Repeat this exercise for 1-2 sets of 10-12 reps.

 

Conclusion

Even though you might find it a bit difficult and strenuous carrying out all of these exercises, believe me when I say that your body will in no distant time get stronger and more acquainted with it. Always avoid the temptation of going too heavy on each of these exercises to prevent injuries. By the end of these shoulders workout you certainly feel the pump in all three heads. These workouts can be repeated two or three times every week as the shoulder muscles tend to heal pretty quickly with adequate rest and proper nutrition.
