The Benefits of Shoulder Conditioning

Life Quality

In return, increased physical activity promotes healthier blood flow, a more efficient metabolism, and improved heart health. All of these benefits help lead you to a better quality of life and decrease your chances of medical issues. The additional calories you burn during your workout will continue throughout your day and help you on your way to a more tone and defined body!

Reduced Risk of Injury

Shoulder injuries are one of the most common and can put you out of commission and even debilitate you from your daily routine. In addition, shoulders can be very painful and slow to heal. One reason they are slow to heal is because of the frequency you use your shoulders, never giving them a chance to rest and recover.

This Killer Shoulder Workout will improve your mobility, shore up your muscles and joints with proven muscle strengthening techniques all while sculpting your shoulders to look and feel better. In addition, this will improve your muscular balance and stability to keep your skeletal structure better aligned.

Daily Performance

Killer Shoulders Workout

Adding this Killer Shoulders Workout to your routine will help improve your other strength training lifts resulting in even better gains. A general rule in weightlifting, sports, or even life for that matter is you are only as strong as your weakest link. Many daily movements and competitive motions tend to make your shoulders your weakest link.

Playing catch with your friends or kids, putting your plates away, grabbing something off the shelf, or even lifting your briefcase or suitcase. Sometimes we find ourselves limited or fatigued in necessary activities or missing out on opportunities. Take advantage of this simple Killer Shoulders Workout and start performing your everyday tasks and capitalizing on your opportunities with ease.

Improve Your Lifts

A common lift to develop your chest is the incline press. You also may have noticed your shoulders tend to feel the burn before your chest does. This is great…for your shoulders but you are not optimizing your exercise’s purpose. Stronger shoulders will help you develop the rest of your body and improve lifts such as your bench press, lat pull down, rows, planks, and much more.

Toned Shoulders Look Great!

When it comes to appearance, well-defined shoulders – deltoids to be specific – stand out. Toned deltoids imply fitness and an active lifestyle, both increasing your appeal. From a distance, the shape of a strong rounded shoulder stands out and only continues to impress as you get closer. Start toning and building your shoulders with this simple routine and boost your confidence. If you already have a routine, consider the benefits of muscle confusion by mixing up your exercises.

1. Deltoid Raise Cable Spread

Hold your Steel Bow, Bow Classic, or Iso-Bow by the cable grips in the vertical position – your palms should face each other and grips should be centered on cables. Spread your Bullworker’s cables with focus on using the back of your shoulder – posterior deltoids. Once you have spread the cables of your Bullworker between 60%-80% of your maximum effort, maintain an isometric hold for 7 seconds. When you finish your isometric hold continue with 10 Iso-Motion repetitions. Maintain your tension keeping your Bullworker cables spread apart, keeping your arms straight – elbow slightly bent – and move from side to side. It is very important to focus on using your posterior deltoids to create the motion and not your hips or back.
