You need dumbbells for this entire workout. You do 8 reps of every exercise in this workout non-stop (in order), once done you rest 1 minute. Repeat two more times.
1. Front Raise - 8 reps 2. Side/Lateral Raise - 8 reps 3. Arnold Press - 8 reps 4. Military Press - 8 reps
1. Front raise - Stand shoulder width apart, palms facing in. Hold the dumbbells next to each other in front of your quadriceps. Raise them up until they are slightly below your chin. Relax, and bring them back.
2. Side/Lateral raise - It's the same as the front raise, but on your sides. Remember, slightly below your chin.
3. Military Press - Sit on a chair with no arms with dumbbells in hands. Have your arms to your sides and lifted up, making a V shape for each arm, palms facing out. Raise your arms up in that same position straightening your arms slightly, but elbows bent.
4. Arnold Press - Sit on a chair with no arms with dumbbells in hands, palms facing in. Twist while raising it to the top, elbows slightly bent at the top.
After doing all this you'll feel an intense burn. After a few days of doing this every other day (incorporate it with other exercises), you'll start noticing an increase in your shoulders. For me, it took a day for me to notice how big it got. So have fun :]
I'm not sure why I can't add steps to each picture (I'm new to this :x). It's ordered according to each step, so just match the description above with each picture.
