Broad shoulders can not only hold up clothes, but also give people an inexplicable sense of security, so many boys like to train their shoulders. There are many shoulder training exercises, but not many of them can develop shoulder width. So do you know what the shoulder width exercises are? Let’s go take a look below!
Action 1: Standing Dumbbell Press
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and your back straight , tighten your abdomen, hold a dumbbell in each hand and lift it to your shoulders; exert force on your deltoid muscles, slowly lift the dumbbell upwards until your arms are straight, but do not completely straighten your arms; pause at the top, contract your deltoid muscles, and then actively control the speed Slowly lower in and restore. Pressing allows us to use heavier weights to stimulate the shoulders, and in this way, the shoulder muscles can be developed relatively efficiently, but during the movement, body stability needs to be maintained.
Action 2: Standing dumbbells alternately raised forward
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, your back straight, your abdomen tight, and your hands Hold each dumbbell hanging by your side; keep your elbows slightly bent, use your deltoid muscles to lift one arm to eye level; pause at the top, control the speed and slowly restore it, and then switch sides. Front raises can effectively stimulate the front deltoid muscles. It is performed by alternating hands, which allows us to impact a larger weight during the movement, thereby allowing us to better stimulate the front deltoid muscles.
Action 3: Standing Dumbbell Lateral Raise
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, your back straight, your abdomen tight, and your hands on each side. Hold the dumbbell in front of your hips; keep your elbows slightly bent, use your deltoid muscles, and lift the dumbbell to the side and up to shoulder height; pause for a moment at the top, then control the speed and slowly restore it. The lateral raise is a classic movement that exercises the middle deltoid muscle. We can increase the width of the shoulders by focusing on the middle deltoid muscle. This action can be done in a standing or sitting position.
