3 Exercises for Shoulder

This is a video of a training session of the shoulder that Lee Hayward did with Vince Delmonte while working at the Las Vegas Athletic Club. We did sneak reverse Grip Barbell shoulder presses, wide grip ranks right up and huddled before gripping raises.


Reverse Grip Barbell Shoulder Press
This exercise of the shoulder can be done sitting or standing. It begins in a similar position at the top of a bicep curl and finished head like a barbell press. Flexibility in the cuff of the forearm are needed to complete the movement with the elbows straight.

Wide Grip Upright Row
1. Stand with your feet shoulder width apart. Hold weights in each hand, palms facing your body. Your hands should hang shoulder width apart.

2. Slowly raise both arms simultaneously so that your elbows are directed to the sides. Raise your hands until the chin. Maintain this position for a second.
3. Lower weights to the starting position. This will be a repeat. Perform this movement for 10-15 repetitions.

Curl before gripping raises

To perform the exercise, the athlete stands with their feet shoulder width apart and weight held by their side with an overhand grip (pronation).
The movement is to bring the weight of the vehicle body forward eye level and with only a slight bend in the elbow. This isolates the anterior deltoid (front of shoulder) and uses the anterior deltoid to lift the weight.
