Thank you! I've needed a way to work my delts without my forearm, as I have tendonitis there. I cannot do lateral raises or any pulling motion with an overhand grip while it heals. A gym I went to years ago used to have a machine that allowed lateral raises by placing the weight and pads on the upper arm, with the lower arm deactivated and simply raising in a chicken wing motion, but that machine is long gone, and I've never seen another one like it. All other dumbell or machine motions seem to either require a grip I can't perform, or are presses which lack isolation. This is a solution for me. Thanks again.

I suggest you to read up on how the chest/pec muscle fibers 'run'. They run horizontaly and you can't stress the outsides of those muscle fibers(isolation) That's why we speak about up and lower chest, same goes with shoulder only the muscle fibers run vertically. So only front, mid and back with shoulders and not upper and lower shoulder. Also diamond pushups viewed as a tricep exercise more than any other push up, not 'inner' chest as that is impossible to train. (isolation)

i've been doing these for a few months now whenever i'm on the road and don't have access to a gym - they work a treat, almost better than weights! important to remember not to rush it as this exercise has a very short range of motion and is not ballistic movement, so take it real sloooow to feel the stretch and keep the reps low (10-12 max, it's the quality of the movement that matters and not the volume, cheers!

I don't like this exercise. I don't feel pressure on my shoulder at all, but on the right side of my back. I have the impression that it is now a little more muscular than before.
It's frustrating as hell!
Are there any unilateral calisthenics (without weights) exercises for the entire left part of my upper body that would touch only it? Please, this imbalance of my muscularity is killing me extremely.

Thanks for this man. I've been looking how to incorporate delt exercises into my park workout and this looks like something I need to try. It looked pretty difficult for you and you're pretty cut up so this must be a hard exercise. I look forward to the challenge. Also, nice to see an older guy like yourself looking so cut. Gives me motivation.

You cannot target the outsides of muscle fibre, you can only train upper and lower chest by de and incline. Normal pushups actually put more strain on the muscle fibres of the pecs than diamond pushups which focus alot more on triceps. Hence why close grip bench press is considered a tricep exercise.

Hi! I think (Ill see a doctor soon, just the queue to get in is long) I have a Cubital Tunnel Syndrome, What you think, can I use at least this exscercise? I don't want to leave arm training out completely while I'm looking for answers and solutions to my problem. Thanks!

Hi everybody,
Is this exercise safer for shoulder joint/tendons than classical lateral raises?
Besides these, is this bodyweight exercise less -impinging- for shoulder tendons?
Thanks for your feedback
