Shoulders

Shoulders Workout 2
1. Neutral-grip shoulder press

Now it's time to build impressive boulder shoulders.

Sets: 3 / Reps: 8

Target: front and mid-shoulders

Why it works: Using a neutral grip avoids placing vertical pressure on the vulnerable part of the shoulder joint. This move starts the workout with a big, mass-moving exercise when the most energy is available for the greatest muscle fatigue.

Brace your core and keep your lower back unstressed.

Keep your palms facing each other.

Press up explosively.

Pause at the top to stabilise the weight.
