    John Meadows covered this very well with a superset style approach. First set, heavy Lateral raises with 50% range of motion for 20 reps (30 lbs~ go half way up). Followed immediately by regular Lateral raises with 10-15 lbs full range of motion 20 reps too. Do that 4x and you will have a solid pump. I've seen more results from this in the last 6 months alone compared to all the heavy pressing I used to do in the last several years.

      @ArteDelDiablo 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@deriusjones3024 about 3x a week. For example I'd have 1 solid shoulder day with some moderately heavy pressing and the other 2 days I'd do the Lateral raises workout I originally posted about as a secondary muscle group. On those days the focus would be the pump and not strength. It's less taxing on the nervous system and easy on the joints due to the light weight.

    Love the emphasis on working the rear delt. That’s really the final piece to having rounded shoulders. It also helps with posture which makes you’re chest look bigger.

  • @tumbleweedconnection7906
    @tumbleweedconnection7906 3 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    Wide grip upright rows done with a slight lean forward and pulling the bar only as high as the lower chest does a great job hitting the side delts and eliminates basically all the risk often associated with standard upright rows.

  • @SaiRose15
    @SaiRose15 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hands down safest way to build shoulders without pressing is neutral grip front raises, light side raises and rear delt raises/flies. If you do the upright row do them with the rope handle holding the rope with each hand like you would a coffee mug handle lifting to collarbone height leaning forward slightly. Rope can be attached to a cable, kettlebell, dumbbell or plates.

      Lol don’t do it if you do not have the mobility. As good as that exercise is… I have impinged my shoulders like 3-4 times every time I do an upright row. Now I avoid it at all costs.

      If you lack to mobility, they can cause problems. A lot of bodybuilders lack mobility, and they think the solution is to not do those exercises, but the solution is to obtain more mobility so the exercise doesn’t bother you.

      I have lower back issues as well and squats are hard because of it. I find the key is isolation exercises on machines that focus on your legs and/or upper back, then lightly training my lower separately. I'll then engage squats when I feel ready.

    I feel like most ppl diagnose themselves with shoulder issues, and skip overhead stuff because it's too hard. They would rather do their 20-rep lateral raises than 4x10 overhead press. I've had multiple clients overhead press their BW after rotator cuff surgery. If you want big shoulders, you gotta fricking press overhead. It's like trying to get big legs but you don't wanna squat.

      @irishscience580 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Try exercises that dont bother that injured shoulder. But if they do hurt your shoulder i’d say you would have to take a few months off completely to let it heal. Take it from my experience. I fully tore my infraspinatus in my left shoulder and the only thing that healed it was taking 8 months off completely. Never got surgery for it cause i couldnt afford it. But definitely get checked out and think about surgery.

    • @martingimenez339
      @martingimenez339 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      First thing you have to do is avoid using your shoulders untill the inflammation is gone, that's why it hurts, the shoulders never got to rest properly. Of course you can use cables to build the chest but the problem is cables will offer a resistance you will have to break so the front delts will engage to do it and it will continue to hurt. If your shoulders are always in pain you will have to stop using them at least for a whole month because they wore off.
