I'm 54 and only been working out for 3 years now. After a job injury breaking both legs I had to rehab. So I joined a gym in San Antonio. After getting my legs strong I was really looking forward to growing shoulders. I'm not having much success but I'll try anything. I absolutely love your shoulders Erin❤
Many people would have given up after such an injury - kudos to you for working towards getting stronger instead! If you're not already, consider eating more protein for your first meal and last meal of the day (look up anabolic resistance). Also make sure you're eating enough and making workout progressively more difficult over the weeks... and don't forget a deload every 8-12 weeks. You've got this!
@erinstern5 YES of course Erin! I used to watch other TH-cam videos with males who I won't say but when I found you I was impressed!!! Today if I tell roid males in the gym where I get my info from (Erin Stern) they laugh. They even try to sell me crap...I'm not impressed by them. Keep the videos coming!!!!
@@ErinSternFIT Can you please make some videos guiding us which workouts are safe to do after we have been through injuries like spinal or shoulder or any other, who want to rebuild again. Thank you Erin, your workouts are very helpful and you as a trainer are impressively inspiring. ❤
Took this in to the gym today…. I’m already sore! Yay! I’m 61 but no one knows that! lol! I’m proud of it but my point it I’ve been in the gym since I was very young. Erin’s workouts take me next level!!!! Thank you Erin!!❤ you’re both a Beauty and a beast!!!!
Erin, For several years, I've attentively followed your video content. The manner in which you convey information stands out as both highly professional and remarkably clear. Your approach truly sets a gold standard in effective communication. Thank you for the continued information. In addition, your back looks amazing!
Erin you have been inspiring me for years!!!! I always take notes of your workout and then take my notes to the gym. Thank you for being such an incredible motivator ♥️♥️♥️
That lateral heavy partial raise and bus driver looks like just the exercises I needed. Love all these shoulder workouts, your incredible physique and attitude is really inspiring! I'd really like to see more content about building muscle.
I am a 75 year old Vietnam war veteran in generally good health. I have watched a lot of exercise videos, mostly by male trainers . I find this particular shoulder workout video as a workout that I can easily do without aggravating an old military injury to to my thoracic vertebrae. Previously, every workout I did, I had to work around my chronic back pain and injury. Most of the shoulder workouts by male trainers have aggravated my back pain and injury. All but one of Erin’s featured exercises I am able to do without pain or discomfort Not only am I able to implement most of Erin’s shoulder workouts.. My upper back and shoulders actually seem to have experienced a rehab effect. At least I have less pain and more strength in targeted muscle groups. Thank you so much. Love you Erin. 🙏🏽❤️
Great! Thank you. 3 months into shoulder recovery I will start this without weights to feel the movements and then progress to bands and eventually weights. I would love to see a programme like this for legs. With weak knees I always look for alternatives 👊🏾♥️
Thank you Erin! I’m turning 51 and recently started competing in the NPC after over a decade of weigh training…Sandy’s feedback was to grow my upper body for balance. This video is so helpful ♥️
Bus drivers, yes! Crazy how exhausting those are with just a light weight! My trainer tells me to slow down, that I’m not driving in NYC 😅 Your physique is incredible Erin!!! #GOALS 💪🏼❤️
The “pushing away” tip is the best! I’m pushing 60 and I’ve always struggled to strengthen and grow shoulders, starting with some musician-related injuries back in the day. I started lifting weights again a few years ago but my shoulders were going nowhere. Saw you mention this “pushing” tip in another video a few weeks ago. Really noticing results, for the first time in decades!
Love it! Thank you. If I were to choose, I'd love to see a whole video on growing the rear delts because i personally find it the most tricky part to grow.
Hi Erin, I liked the format today. First,doing the exercise, then explaining the setup. Been trying to work on the back delts lately, perfect timing 👍💪
Erin, I love all your workout videos. Any suggestions for poor range of motion in shoulders? You name it I have it wrong with my right shoulder. I need a partial replacement. My arms were my best feature. When I do a lateral raise my elbow will not go up to correct position. Can’t do presses or face pulls
Thanks Erin, for another great video. I ALWAYS learn something from your posts. IMHO you and Caroline Girvan are the greatest that TH-cam has to offer when it comes to fitness . You both provide real no BS videos for real results. Not to mention you're both beautiful, humble and easy to listen to. Keep them coming, Erin :)
Same Lisa!! I learnt to stand away/lean from pull. That’s why I find it awkward…I am too close to the rope pull! She’s fab! Miss Caroline’s videos. She was a beast😂
I really enjoy this ladies videos. Despite her incredible gains and physique she comes across as mild and humble. I personally have adopted several of her recommendations into my regime. A lot of her advice is really great for sculpting. Something that I struggled with in regular bodybuilding.Keep the great content coming
I love the dumbbell one you showed awhile ago where u do across to opposite shoulder. I do at least 10 lb and 12 lb. Maybe 20 times each side. I love that because I can do it at home and at the gym
Hey Erin! I really love your teaching style and am learning so much from you. Thank you! If you haven’t already done it, could you please share your knowledge on the best compound exercises for full body that can be done at home with dumbbells? Maybe your top 6 or 7 exercises or supersets?
Hi Erin, thank you for all of your videos. You are truly inspirational and I learn a lot from each of your videos. I'm interested in leaning some trap exercises, if you have any that you like. I will defiantly try the Bus Driver. Never heard of it before...looking forward to trying it.
Thanks for sharing the video😊. I started doing more cable workouts after watching all your videos and became extremely fascinated with it. When I go to the gym a cable workout is a must for me. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos showing different kinds of cable workouts 👍.
You read my mind! I want to add fullness to my shoulders and really fill them out. I'm 55 years old and I don't want to just be lean I want to have fullness too! Thank you!
Hey Erin! Please could make a video on how to choose your division? I'm hoping to compete in a few years, but am really just getting into bodybuilding! ☺ I'm thinking of going for Figure because I'm quite upper body dominant, but not completely sure! Also, are there any major differences between competing in the UK verses the US that you can think of? Thanks for the content! You've been one of my biggest inspirations from the start of my fitness journey! 💪
I would love another glute focused no leg (cuz I bulk so easily there) workout. Preferrably something that doesn't need machines except a smith machine :)
bummed because I need a modification for any exercises the that push up as after a frozen shoulder my PT told me no more pressing over head exercises. I can pull down though
I was needing a new shoulder workout for today. Train em 2x’s a week cuz trying to get that cap. Slow progress but hopefully this will fire them up! Have been really focusing on mind muscle connection too and that has definitely made a difference 💪🏼 your back looks incredible! How about yr workout for that? N proper sissy squat form? Need help there too! Thanks Erin! Always great content 📝
Good morning wonder woman. 🥰 My husband and I were just watching a new movie and there was wonder woman on it. You should of been the new Wonder woman. She can't hold a candle to you
I think it comes down to age, genetics, sun exposure, how well you eat, and how you take care of yourself. I’m 43 now, and notice gravity more than when I was 35 or 25 🤣 Not much can be done to tighten skin naturally. Red light therapy may help, along with collagen, and HIIT. Building muscle can help to “fill out” certain areas as well. Hope that helps!
Focus on pushing the dumbbells away from your body versus lifting them up - that should help! Go slower and lighter until you get the feel for the new cue ☺️
I have a question dear Erin , on the journey of fitness & loosing weight it mostly results in the loose boobies , as someone who has been long in the fitness do you have any tips or words hope for women to deals with this situation, thanks Erin
Thank you so much Erin. You’re such an inspiration!! I started strength training two months ago and I absolutely love it. Been doing it 3 times a week but Iately my neck muscles hurt, thought it was my trap. Saw a physio yesterday, turn out it’s the deepest muscle in my neck called omohyoid muscle. xOx could you give me some pointers on how to train without stressing this muscle? I finally found something that sticks with me and I don’t want to lose it 🥹
I’ve wanted to add size as I’m pear shaped and my bottom have is shaping nicely. Working my shoulders has balanced me out however I’m injured at the mo (mastered pull ups but did too many too soon ooops) so have to chill about on any overhead moment. Ladies who lift here we go!!! 🦾

Off every 8-12 weeks and always feel stronger and refreshed when I pick it up again

Awesome video once again! I'm getting ready to compete in March 2024 and growing those shoulders is on the agenda. I'm 64 years old.

Would love to see a follow along real-time workout ❤
Thanks! I’d love to do one, but it’s very difficult to do in a public gym!

Never tried the bus driver one so have to try that one
It’s brutally good!
Thanks Erin for all your content!! I would like to see more quads videos. I want my quads to get more define thanks!! ❤❤

Erin Stern is my favorite athlete because she’s pretty.
Aww, thank you ☺️
Awesomely, as always from U: this was great; and somewhat "Wing-chun" like in prep 4 boxing?

How do I get a back like yours?
Your rear delts 💞💞 ✨ great video . I like when you do barbell only videos or minimal equipment.. no cable machines
Happy Wednesday 💪❤
Happy Wednesday to you, Israel!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’ll incorporate these tips & a couple of exercises into shoulders.
For growth and strength I alternate between push presses and strict presses.
Nice video coach 😘
How many excicises per each muscle and love u🥰
You read my mind! I want to add fullness to my shoulders and really fill them out. I'm 55 years old and I don't want to just be lean I want to have fullness too! Thank you!

Thank you for making these videos! I love wide grip upright row and cable lateral raises.
Love it ❤ thank you 🙏
Im having a hard time with the lateral raises. I seem to use my elbows too much rather than isolating the shoulders. Any tips?
I would love another glute focused no leg (cuz I bulk so easily there) workout. Preferrably something that doesn't need machines except a smith machine :)
Oh yeah! Those bus drivers do hurt Erin! LOL I do them with a resistance band around my shoulders so I pay for bending my arms. LOL
Great video! Thank you!
Thanks Erin! I can't wait to try this workout😊
bummed because I need a modification for any exercises the that push up as after a frozen shoulder my PT told me no more pressing over head exercises. I can pull down though

Did this work out this morning! It was great! Loved the 1/2 rep lateral raises n the face pulls. I always had the cable attachment set too high 🤯
You mentioned deload, what exactly is it?
Good morning wonder woman. 🥰 My husband and I were just watching a new movie and there was wonder woman on it. You should of been the new Wonder woman. She can't hold a candle to you
How do you keep your skin tight around your triceps.. my wife is 58 .. she is lean.
I think it comes down to age, genetics, sun exposure, how well you eat, and how you take care of yourself. I’m 43 now, and notice gravity more than when I was 35 or 25 🤣
Not much can be done to tighten skin naturally. Red light therapy may help, along with collagen, and HIIT. Building muscle can help to “fill out” certain areas as well. Hope that helps!

How do I keep my traps from growing on those lateral lifts

Is it for broad shoulders?
Yes, to build width across the shoulders and roundness as well

At 45, I feel like shoulders are so hard to grow. Im just an average everyday woman, not a builder, but even just that is hard.
Gluten please Erin
Glutes or gluten? My phone likes to change glutes to gluten, so I'm guessing you want a video on building buns instead of baking them? :)
I'm trying to get rid of my shoulders too much looks like a dude 😅
Haha it’s all about balance!
U lost ur beautiful face
