First, sit and push.
Shoulder push is a relatively simple exercise, but there are also many mistakes. The biggest mistake is the position of the hand. Many people put their hands on the inside of their elbows when sitting on the shoulder push, which is similar to bench push. When we push it out, it will be like doing some strange backhand flexion and extension, which is wrong.
So we should start from the beginning. In the starting position, our hands should be flush with our mouths, and our hands must be directly above our elbows. During the whole process, our hands should be directly above the elbow, and then when we push them up to the neck, don't let the two dumbbells collide, just keep it like that.
Then we put it down slowly until the dumbbell is parallel to the mouth again, because if it is too low, the shoulder rescue will have little force. If so, I can keep this movement for almost a whole day, because our deltoid muscle is resting, so we can keep the deltoid muscle and mouth at the same height to keep the whole force.
By the way, when we lift dumbbells, we must never shrug our shoulders when we reach the highest point, and we don't need to lock our elbows, because this will not achieve the expected top posture. Remember, shrugging won't do any good.
Second, side lift
When we do sports, there is another error-prone movement, that is, side lifting. Here, I want to tell you the basics of shoulders first.
The muscles on the shoulder are divided into toe, middle and back. Whether we push horizontally or vertically, the toes will be more powerful than the middle or back. In fact, compared with the toes, the back is simply too small.
So when we push horizontally or vertically, we must focus on training the middle shoulder girdle. Pay attention to this point, because our toes are too developed, it is easy for us to lift the barbell with the front end of the dumbbell facing up, so when lifting the barbell, we must lean forward slightly, instead of leaning against the stool. When lifting sideways, we should either keep the dumbbell level or lower the front end of the dumbbell.
It is worth noting that you must know your weight. If it is too heavy to do, then we should start with a light one. In the process of dumbbell rising, you should pay attention to the place where your muscles are stressed. These are some places where we are prone to make mistakes when training shoulders in the gym, so I hope you can correct these wrong moves after reading this article.
