If you’re looking to get into shape and feel strong, then shoulders are an essential muscle group to exercise. Here are some of the best exercises that you can do to develop sculpted shoulders to make you look and feel good.

Upright Row

Holding either resistance bands, kettlebells, or dumbbells, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Pull the weights or bands up as you bend your elbows outwards. Complete 10 reps using a weight that is manageable for you.

Halo

Hold a dumbbell on its side in front of your chest. With bent elbows, rotate the dumbbell past the left side of your head and bring it around the other side before going back in the opposite direction.

Reverse Plank

Begin by sitting with your legs straight out and your arms at your side. Lift your body up with your arms, extend your legs, and maintain a straight body as you hold your position. Add some knee drives for a more challenging workout.

Strong shoulders are crucial to an effective, overall strong body. They help reinforce your core, invigorate your arms, and keep your head firmly supported as well. But what are the most effective exercises for strengthening your shoulders?

Overhead Shoulder Press

Take a dumbbell or a weight in each hand and lift up above the head, hold for five seconds, and then gently lower the arms back to the standing rest position. Repeat five times. This will strengthen your shoulders along with the lower back and legs.

Butterfly Peck Raise

Standing with a weight in each hand, lift your arms up by your sides, keeping them straight. Repeat ten times for a set. This works out your shoulders in connection with the chest and abs.

Seated Shoulder Press

This is the same as the previous shoulder press, but this time you’ll be sitting down. Lift the dumbbell or weights up above your head, keeping your arms straight. The seated shoulder press works more exclusively on the shoulders since it doesn’t use the back so much.

Wide Press Up

An easy bodyweight exercise for the shoulders is the wide press up. This is like an ordinary press up, but set your hands wide apart so that they are past each shoulder. This will focus more on the shoulders, chest, and neck muscles.
