Hi matey..Do seated side lateral raises first in your routine. Hold the dumbell right at the back end of the dumbell with the little finger right against the weight, with the elbows in a natural position (slightly bent not fully straightened) "lift" the weight directly out to the side, do not allow the dumbell to go forwards. As soon as the dumbell leaves the side slightly twist the whole of the arm (as if pouring water from a jug). take 3 seconds to take the weight up, hold for 2 seconds at shoulder height, take three seconds to lower the weight. 4 sets 8-10 reps. NOTE: at any time the hand travels higher than the elbow then the front delts become more involved, this type of side delt raise you will see a lot of people using, the elbow should always be higher than the hand.......

Not sure what you mean by "shaping" the shoulders. Lower bodyfat will bring out the splits between the front, side, rear delts

I am going to try these exercises because i wanted to increase my shoulder size anyway as they are small.
I have also tried to lift barbels and do free weights to build my muscles. Thanks alot |

Sounds Interesting!
Just wondering though what i would sub out to use them? the W presses I assume would replace the Arnold / Shoulder Press? but what about the Prone Reverse Raises?

Those are killers!! i haven't done the W's or the Swing- I'll have to avoid those
![]() Why don't ppl know these techniques? They are amazing!!! Good post! ![]() A variation I've used- prone on a slightly incline bench back to back sets with DB's-- rear delt raises, front raises, and reverse(?) then...military press No rest between sets! YOUCH! delts are worked from several angles and fatigue quickly (for lil old moi) Does that sound good Doug? Last edited by Michal; 04-17-2009 at 02:33 PM. |
