< strong>Rear deltoid muscle: V bar pull down!
Shoulder bodybuilding training must pay attention to the posterior shoulder bundles. Most people focus on the facial muscles in the front of the shoulders! But you don’t know that weak muscles on the back of your shoulders will greatly compromise your shoulders
Strong and full back shoulder muscles will make your figure more three-dimensional, making you look beautiful from the front, side or back. A nice shoulder!
Today I want to introduce to you a great movement to help you strengthen your posterior shoulder muscles: V-bar pull-down!
This is a great action, similar to the usual back muscle pull-down. It is very good for stimulating the posterior shoulder bundles. We will introduce it to you in detail below!
Unlike traditional pull-downs, you need to spread your elbows while pulling down so that your shoulders tend to open back. This will stimulate the back of your shoulders more intensively
How to do it?
1. Choose a sloping chair with an angle of about 45 degrees, and then lie down on the stool!
2. Grasp the V-shaped rope with both hands!
Then start to pull your shoulders down. During the pull-down process, pay attention to opening your elbows and expanding them outwards. Try to squeeze and clench your fists to maintain static contraction for two seconds!
Then spread your shoulders and slowly return upward!
Important tips:
1. Choose a medium to low weight of about 12-15 reps
2. Be careful not to pull the weight with your hands, but use your shoulders to move inward. The tightening method tightens the cable outwards. At the top of the movement, you will feel the continuous tension in your entire back shoulder!
3. One trick during movements is to keep an eye on your elbows and let them guide your movements!
