Upper Body Workout 3 – Shoulder Exercises


 Empty cans – start with your feet shoulder width apart, holding the dumbbells with your thumbs pointing into your thighs. Keep your shoulders down and arms straight. Lift your hands up and away from your body, keeping your arms in 45 degree angles to your midline until your arms are parallel to the ground. Don’t bend your elbows or upper back and keep your thumbs pointing down toward the floor and your pinkies up towards the ceiling. This exercise works your shoulders.

One arm internal rotation deltoid raise -  Use a lighter weight for this exercise and make sure that the movement of your arm is controlled and not fast and jerky. Keep your hand and wrist stable with your thumb pointing towards the floor and your pinkie towards the ceiling.

Have fun with this workout,

Zuzana.

    Hi Zuzana,

    I was looking at the add under this video description that discusses the famous ‘Acai Barry’. Have you every tries it and, if not, would you recommend it to anyone who wants to detoxify their body and boost their energy?

    Zuzana,

    Are there any more parts besides 1,2,3 to this workout?
    I tried it the other day. I couldn’t believe how much more difficult or intense it was on my body by doing using the compound set approach.

    This really gives me a chance to tweak my exercise routines by incorporating these compund sets. Somrtimes I feel as if my body is getting used to my workouts so this will allow me to change it up.

    Thank You
    Good luck with your certification:)

    Hi Luzi :)

    There are 5 parts to this workout and we are working on putting them up asap as well as the lower body workout. I have just submitted my final exam so I am waiting for the results. I haven’t been updating for couple days because I was just focusing on finishing the exam. One of the parts of the exam was putting together some workout routines for imaginary clients which turned out to be fun plus I will post them all here. Thanks for your support ;)

    so you were shooting for 10 total reps of each move within the set and then a small amount of rest in between before beginning again? All total was 3 sets, correct?
    Then one goes onto the next video and works same way for 3 sets?

    What happens if you have done a total body workout and your whole body is sore–how does one workout again the next day? Choose the least sore parts? Like yesterday I did some of the intense Tabata and some of the lower body moves so legs are very sore and I thought do upper body today. Well-what if I had done a full body workout/bootcamp and felt sore all over? What do you do to prevent injury or proper recovery?Thanks!

    Yes it is 2exercises back to back 3 times.

    For proper recovery you can take one day off or do some cardio between the workouts.

    Hi Zuzana,

    I just started getting into fitness around April and I have been following your workout videos. Your arms are amazing and I am looking to achieve that kind of result. I want to know how long it took for you?

  • http://www.motleyhealth.com/eastern_health_and_fitness/an-introduction-to-yoga Marcia

    I like these shoulder exercises. I find that they really compliment my yoga well, by providing me with additional strength to help stabilize when doing my postures.

  • Iva

    Hi Zuzana

    Good routine.

    I meet the lateral raise, but always done with the thumbs point up.

    With the way that you show i can feel work anterior, middle and posterior deltoid fibers (with the other way i can feel more the anterior and middle fibers)and can feel the triceps too.

    what is your reason to do the lateral raise on this way? (with thumbs point down).

    Tahnks Zuzana, please forgive my english.

    Great shoulder workout. I was able to fit this into my normal fitness routine and have seen good results so far.

    I need to start following your blog more often. I need to lose this gut that i’ve built up over years of sitting in front of the comp. Even my gf’s getting on my case. .. thanks for the tips!

    Ouch! This one gets that area between my shoulders going. Was sore the next day… but I’m rotating this with other exercises for upper body here. Slowly getting there. Thanks for the video showing us exactly how to do it. Julian

  • roxy

    what is a good work out for the flab of skin thats in between the armpits and your arm not sure what its called hehe but it really bothers me when i wear tanktops or slevless shirts help!!

  • Debbie

    Hi Zuzana!
    I have a general question: If I can’t do all the reps that I want because I get tired at the end of the exercise, isn’t it better if I do it with lighter dumbells than doing less reps???

    Být zavázán tebe!! ;)

    Debbie.
