@guitarshredder47 Just keep doing military press and pound the fuck out of your shoulders with heavy weight. Rear deltoids are really hard to develop, just keep training them, they can take a beating.
god i hate deltoid workouts... i reluctantly force myself to do it :( i have the third eyeeeeeeeeeee i see my visionnnnnnnnnnn O_O must do deltoidssss *¬*
That exercise won't fully contract posterior deltoid fibers. Though it does work the posterior deltoids someone relying on this exercise will notice more of a burn in the rhomboids or the area between the shoulder blades on both sides of the spine.
Aside from this exercise should be a motion as if pulling the arm back along the leg toward the posterior without lateral movement while in the same position demonstrated in the video.
You're not internally rotating, the elbows are more back than up, plus you're only bending 45 instead of getting totally prone, so wouldn't this be a medial deltoid movement more than posterior?
@tyciol if you are totally prone it is difficult to avoid targeting your back muscles. @ 45degrees you may feel some medial deltoid engagement, though if that is all you feel and cannot get the pump in your rear delts it is possible you may be using too much weight or could be straining your joints.
imo, he is holding the dumbbells in the up position for too long as well, you don't want to screw up your shoulder joint. heavy weight is not the goal with these
@Cradle2Venus I figure the back muscles will get involved regardless. Regardless of trap/rhomboid activity though, they don't attach to the humerus so some muscle has to translate the force across the scapulae. If it's not the posterior deltoid then it's probably the infraspinatus.
The only thing I'd want to avoid is translating it to the teres major or the upper lats because I hate internal rotators. For the most part I think infraspin or the teres minor are fine to hit since they external rot
@JReyes123 I have the same issue, im dealing with an injury to my left shoulder so its extra tough lol but when its all done it feels good.....it hurts so good hahaha
Shoulder working is the hardest for me either.... especially if you workout hard 4x on 10 reps . To tell you I cannot lift too much for the Posterior Deltoid but still it's good to work it with the weight you can .
I always called training deltoits "slaying the three headed monster" lol. The rear delts are hit hard during compound back excercises like rows and pulls etc, But its always good to isolate the rear with those finishing touches. I personaly do this "ronnie coleman" style where im kinda raising my arms backwards as im bent over like my arms are paddles rowing a boat. rarley do i go over 25-30 pounds. Its not a power movement so form crucial. Happy slaying gentlemen lol
i used to copy rocky and do this exercise with 10kg weights 1 set of 50 that was when i was 13 i got the weights for my 13th birthday you'se are all tiny bitchs
i started on 5lbs but im 14 now and doing 7.5 kg to. dumbell reps of course but i have a different amount or reps aswell as super sets so i dont know.
I do 40 reps with medium wieght dumbells. your viens pop out and you feel a massive bulk. then you do 20 more reps with light wieghts to do the finishing touches. and you go to sleep what may be what you will have in 1 month without flexing or working out its a great sensation :D
Ah your young, thats why xD well keep going, now's the time when your natural hormone/steroids i.e. testosterone is flowing more than ever, so take advantage of it. You will get "steroid gains" if you eat and sleep properly that is :D and ofc excersice regularly
Tank you so much ,I am a women and i have a big problem with that area please , is very difficult reduced the back and all arms, put more video that really can help to us .
@JReyes123 it is for me as well, especially since i broke my collar bone i cant work out my shoulders too much or i can cause extreme damage to it :*( my doctor said it would never be the same and i thought he was just bs'ing - 7 years later when i am 19 i sure notice every bit of pain in my shoulder
thanks mate, iv been ignoring pos delts an my shoulders sloutch forward will this exercise push my shoulders back an straighten out? reply back sum1..
im having the same problems ever since ive been working otu my shoulders i slouch more... how can i strighten them up withwhat kinds of exercise?.. sorry thnx
@dhakagod dont waste ur time on bullshit vids like this. your an ectomorph ( a guy whos skinny and hard to gain weight ) watch twinmuscleworkout best workeout for hardgainer and tips
and remamber your a hardgainer, you need compound 30 minuts workeouts. heave weight low reps low sets
@egdqv13234 are you an expert ? just curious !! ( i am not saying this to mock u, but because I have zero knowledge of body building so I wouldnt be able to judge your comments at all :P )
@dhakagod i wouldnt say im an expert :) i dont know your body im just telling the true facts about bodybuilding, but hey if ur an ectomorph follow these advice or link i send u. takes a little time and youll be ready dude. iv been there done that couse im an ectomorph too. again im GUESSING that ur an ectomorph becouse u seem to say u cant gain any weight or ur skinny.
When it comes to delts I think I use too much weight and get my form all screwed up. I'm 5'8'' 210 lbs and bench 275. What weight dumbells should i be using?
He's doing right but another important thing to remember is that you don't need 100lb weights to do this exercise.. I would say that 10lb is enough since it's more a definition muscle.. U don't have to build mass like for biceps or chest on the back delt.
great exercise and very neglected thanks
