Shoulder Workout (SORE IN 6 MINUTES)

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1

If you ever said you never feel that your shoulder workout is working because you simply cannot get your delts to feel sore the next day, then this 6 minute routine for your shoulders is going to do the trick. Now, it is important to understand that workout soreness is not a prerequisite for muscle growth. There are multiple methods for accomplishing this goal. That said, through mechanical tension and elongation of the muscle while experiencing high tension during the eccentric, we know we can create a response capable of eliciting new gains. When it comes to the shoulder however, this task becomes infinitely more difficult. This is because the exercises that we perform in our shoulder workouts don-t really allow us to elongate the deltoid muscle to any significant degree during the lift. Take the side lateral raise for instance. You can see that the dumbbell begins and returns to the same position, alongside your leg. At no point does the arm cross midline allowing the deltoid to experience an increased stretch. The same can be said for a front shoulder raise or even a classic dumbbell overhead press. Beyond that, we get caught up in always attempting to lift as heavy a weight as we can when working our shoulders, failing to realize that the delts have a high concentration of slow type I muscle fibers making them better candidates for adding in some lighter weights as well. In this shoulder workout routine, I-m going to show you how in just 6 minutes you can perform a combination of shoulder exercises that will help you to get that DOMS working within the next 24 to 48 hours. We are going to use positions that place the front, middle and rear delts in more stretch during the elongation phase of the lift. Of course, the heavier work will still be there and will wrap up the sequence in a unique way. In order to get your deltoids to grow you have to overload the muscles in your shoulder. That said, you don-t want to overload the joints as you attempt to do this. The shoulder, given its high amount of mobility, is one of the most unstable joints in the body and most susceptible to damage. The exercises that I show you here for this shoulder workout are designed to get the best out of your shoulder muscles without sacrificing the integrity of your shoulder joint. In fact, all of the workouts in the ATHLEAN-X Training System are designed with that same purpose. The program was developed to get you training, and looking, like an athlete while protecting your body and fortifying it against injury. You can get it at and start training like an athlete today

Jwff, Great video! Can you clarify a shoulder exercise for me? I understand how you put the middle delt on stretch it makes since, but I see people leaning the other way, they hold onto a post leave the feet stationary and lean out at a 45 degree angle, now there is no stretch and the movement cuts short when it comes down, the arm just dangles, then back out. I'm asked why I don't do the movement. I just say I dont get so I dont do it. I hope I've explained this correctly, and hopefully, I can get some clarification. Thanks again

Hi! I did those exercies first time yesterday! I hate you: ) The pain on the shoulders are something beautiful that I forgot what tastes like! Fantastic workout. I have question - should I treat it like warm up or finall eorkaout for shoulders? And how many sets of this six minutes should I do?
Fantastic job you doing here. I saw your training on six-pack. Thank to you, I've realized that I made this workout totally wrong since 25 years: ): ): ) Greating from Poland!

I have never been able to get much development on shoulders. I am gonna try this though. The teachings here make a great sense. The reasoning for me is this is completely different than how/what i was doing. So it should be easy for me to be interested in this. The only wrinkle here i need incorporate shrugs into this routine.

Do a video where you just go a monologue, offer to buy everyone in the bar a hotdog, and -swear to God that we should go out next week. In fact bro let me get your number! -
That way when I watch the video at half speed it will be even funnier!

I usually do lateral raises, front raises, and overhead presses for shoulders. But, I wasn't feeling or seeing much from them. I did this routine tonight for the first time and my shoulders were on fire. #JeffDeliveredAgain

My son and I are doing corona virus beat downs and this is a brutal one. It's our 3rd day following your videos and we are using half the weight while getting twice the burn. Thanks for the motivation.

Great videos! Very informative. May I make a suggestion? You're literally screaming your videos. We, the audience all have great audio. If you speak normally, it comes across much better.
