No more excuses for not training your upper body. I’m literally giving you the perfect upper-body workout that you can start today. Not only am I going to break down the perfect push workout, but I’m also giving you the perfect pull workout program. Both types of training days in ONE strength training workout plan.
Face pulls are one of the best corrective exercises to help offset poor posture and shoulder dysfunction. They help strengthen the chronically weak muscles in our upper body that get stretched out all day as we sit in a slumped position at the computer or driving our cars. The face pull with an overhead press is a great pull exercise to help strengthen the muscles of the shoulders and upper back including lower traps, rear delts and rotator cuff that will offset the pulling work that you are doing in the rest of your workouts.
Lighter weights are the real key to getting bigger delts much faster, and ultimately to being able to lift more on your heavy compound lifts. Of course, heavy training should remain a part of your shoulder training routine, but if you’re excluding the use of light weights in your shoulder workouts, this is likely holding back the size of your delts! So get ready for the hardest "light" set you've ever done!
A fully developed set of shoulders can do a lot to enhance the appearance of your upper body. Wider shoulders are what create a larger more balanced look, so this is not a muscle group you want to neglect! To fix this common workout oversight, I’m going to show you my 12 best shoulder exercises!
I am huge believer in the methods I'm showing you in this video. It worked for me and I didn't start doing this until I was almost in my 40s!
The classic theory of “Front, Middle and Rear” delt exercises is a good start. But, it’s not enough. Because the shoulder is a three dimensional ball and socket joint, you have a great deal of motion available to you on your shoulder exercises. You’re going to want to find exercises that tap into that full range of motion, and our Perfect Workout is designed to do that.
