Limited time today but got 90% done! Awesome shoulder burner. And I’m starting to like those bent over chest flys!

Something about cable flys makes my heart so happy!

Rinse + repeat for maximal results. Add weight this week.

GOAL 
Build boulder shoulders and that v-taper

DETAILS
1. Lock in dumbbells overhead on an incline bench. 
2. Be sure to keep full control of the dumbbells at all times. Then breathe out and push the dumbbells up with your shoulders.
3. Lock your arms at the top, hold for a second, and then start slowly lowering the weight. Lowering the weights should take about twice as long as raising them.
4. Proud chest and control the movement. 

CUES
- Proud Chest 
- Squeeze from Chest

Incline Dumbbell Press

GOAL
Burn em brah. This is the optimal exercise for building rounder shoulders to trick people into thinking you have a tinier waist #TrickorTreat

DETAILS
1. Grip can vary. Neutral grip for basic life or internally rotate with the dumbbell slightly in front of your hip to target that rotator cuff (lighter weight).
2. Start at the hip and raise up to the shoulders. The dumbbells should be a few inches in front of your body to move in your scapular plane.
3. Elbows are slightly bent and you're initiating the movement with your shoulders.

Pro-Tip: We're going for blood flow on this. I like to use a lil momentum to achieve heavier weights. Just be sure to squeeze + hit a strong top position. 

CUES
- Retract Shoulder Blades

- Elevated Sternum 

- Reach Away 

- Tuck Your Ribs

Seated Dumbbell Lateral Raises

GOAL
Isolate the front deltoid and build those babies to have density to create a rounded, sculpted look 

DETAILS

1. Sit down. Proud chest, palms up.
2.  Raise to eye level by scooping up. 
3. Keep shoulder blades retracted with a proud chest. 
4. Slow and controlled. Really think about flexing the shoulder and not overpowering with the pec or trap. #Contract

Pro-Tip: Get a nice rhythm, think of scooping and lowering slow. 

CUES
- Proud Chest
- Don't Shrug Up
- Breathe
- Scoop Up

Seated Alternating Front Raise

GOAL
Get some shape to your upper body and improve your shoulder function 

DETAILS
1. Sit yo ass down. 
2. Scoot to the end of the seat, feet together and lower weights below knees. 
3. Relax shoulder blades fully while keeping back slightly retracted. 
4. Drive elbows up, squeeze lateral deltoids + traps. 
5. Squeeze at top with a proud chest. 
6. Lower SLOW. Release tension at bottom and repeat. 
Pro-Tip: I prefer not wrapping my thumb around the bar aka less internal rotation.

CUES
- Relax at Bottom
- Proud Chest at Top
- Lower Slow

Seated Upright Row

Delt Pump

Drops at the last set of Smith machine +8

GOAL 
Upper chest pump & stretch 

DETAILS

2. Grab the smith machine about thumb distance away where the rough meets the smooth.
3. Externally rotate, squeeze the lats as you lower.
4. Constantly keep tension by squeezing your shoulder blades back and lower the bar middle of chest.
5. Squeeze chest to press up.
6. Exhale on the way up.

CUES
- Right Triangle 
- Proud Chest
- Externally Rotate

Incline Smith Machine Bench

GOAL
Strong scapular function and upper back

DETAILS
1. Stand erect with a plate in each hand (palms facing your torso), arms extended on the sides.
2. Lift the plates by elevating the shoulders as high as possible while you exhale. Hold the contraction at the top for a second.
3. Slightly bend the elbows back. Lower the plates back to the original position.
4. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.

Note: use dumbbells if you don’t have plates. 

CUES - Squeeze Shoulders up to Ears

2. Gradually bring your chest to the floor, then press the floor away to return to your starting position.
3. Don't drop your neck, you aren't bobbing for apples. You are dominating some good shit. 

Pro-Tip: Elbow mechanics is key, keep them either close to the ribs or a few inches away from your ribs. 

CUES
- Plank Position

- Feet Together
- Elbow 45 degrees Away from Body

2. Jump up and hold onto to a bar. Retract your shoulders and externally rotate that shit. 
3. Stack your body in a perfectly straight line, abs crunched, butt squeezed, and toes pointed.
4. Begin the rep by lifting the toes up to hip level. 
5. Actively crunch your abs while keeping your hips under your shoulders, don't let the hips tuck back behind your body. 
6. On the descent, control the negative and pray to the ab Gods to power you through at least 10 reps. 

CUES
- Feet Together
- Control Descent
- Exhale on Crunch
- Hips In Line With Body
- Crunch Belly Button In

Hanging Leg Raise

Rounded shoulders are out.
Externally rotated → packed lats → controlled squeeze = in.
This tweak keeps tension in your chest, not your traps.

Try it and tell me your pecs didn’t pop.
