A set of smooth, sexy, toned shoulders can be the perfect accessory to the perfect wedding dress. If you're working hard on toning other parts of your arms, toning shoulders will accentuate all the hard work you've been doing -- so don't cheat yourself!
Ladies, I know this muscle group may be easy to forget. That's why I'm getting you started on the right track with a simple shoulder workout to sculpt your arms for your big day and honeymoon! Fella's, I also encourage you to check it out so you and your lady can get firm together! Watch my latest podcast to learn the exercises step-by-step. Here are some notes:
1.) Front shoulder raise to press
Hold a set of dumbbells in front of you with your palms facing your body. Raise your arms with your palms facing down until parallel to the floor. While keeping your elbows parallel to the floor, bring the weights to your chest and then press out straight. Slowly lower arms straight to starting position. Keep your core activated for control on the downward movement. Perform 3 sets of 12 - 15 repetitions, resting one minute between sets.
2.) Single arm leaning lateral raise
Find a sturdy wall or beam and rest the side of one of your shoulders against it. Position your feet on an angle opposite the wall. Hold a dumbbell in the arm opposite the wall. With your palm down, raise your arm sideways (laterally) until your arm is parallel to the floor. Slowly lower it back down to your hip. Perform 3 sets of 10 - 12 repetitions, resting one minute between sets.
3.) Upright row
Hold dumbbells in each hand with your palms facing your body. While maintaining your hands hip-width apart the entire movement, raise your arms vertically to your chest, bending at the elbows and leading with your elbows. Slowly lower your arms to the starting position. Keep your core activated for control on the downward movement. Perform 3 sets of 12 - 15 repetitions, resting one minute between sets.
And finally, for all my YouTube fans - I did some concentration curls at the end of the ...
Atrocious. No consideration for rear delt. Pain, inflammation and shoulder dysfunction await.

@tapthrow Ah, but that is where you are mistaken, my friend. As I mention in the video, you want to keep proper form and use weight that is not too heavy to negatively effect form. Strengthening the shoulder in proper form helps prevent injury. If you're looking for rear delt workouts, you're in luck because I touch on that and ALL muscle groups in many of my other videos - on this channel and Made Fit TV, my channel that I use now to update my latest vids. Hope you check it out and enjoy!

how much time does it take to build these shoulders?

@demi4ever007 LOL! I credit my build to my genetics (naturally broad upper body) and consistent training and nutrition as part of my lifestyle. So, keep training and making health and fitness part of your life, and each year you will look better and better : ) XO

Wow, thank you so much for standing up for me and what I do! I'm glad that you recognize that I am a NATURAL athlete! I tend to forget to remind people of that because I always assume people know and expect me to be anyway - so I always think it should go without saying. I do think on YouTube sometimes the comments get lost in translation or they are too impulsive, so I try not to let them get to me too bad. Thank you so much! XO Hope you watch my videos on my latest channel Made FIt TV!
