Download or read book 21 Days to Bigger Shoulders written by Grant Michaels and published by Nordic Standard Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-30 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Only Shoulder Workout You Will Ever Need Weight training is a very thought out process that requires knowing which exercises are not only going to strengthen your muscles, but which ones will also add on to your muscle size. The same is true when it comes to working out your shoulders. You may think that by working out your arms, chest, and upper back your shoulders will automatically be affected. This just is not true. Not only do your genetics play a role in how big your muscles can actually get, but like any other part of your body specific workouts must be applied to the area. Inside Grant Michael's shoulder workout guide, you will get 11 great exercises that are specifically for toning and building your shoulder muscle mass. You will never look back once you fully understand how your body is impacted by each and every exercise you perform. How Will This Book Help You Increase Your Shoulder Muscle Mass? Grant has put together an extremely detailed illustrated guide specialized in weight training for your shoulders. These 11 exercises will not only focus on the specific deltoid muscles located in the shoulders, but also on the areas surrounding them and the full body. This is to help you ensure that your overall physique is in sync. For example, muscles that will be targeted in this guide besides those located in the shoulder include: Quadriceps Hamstrings Gluteal Abdominal Back Triceps Not only will you get an even workout, but you will learn how to increase your muscle size through safe and recommended methods. You will be taught how to master top-of-the-line weight training exercises that people at the top of their field perform. Why Do You Need a Workout Focused on Your Shoulders? Weight training is a very specific type of working out. The main goal is to obviously build weight onto your body, and when adding this weight you want it to be evenly distributed throughout your muscle mass. Often the shoulders will be overlooked because the trainer thinks that they will automatically be affected from the other exercises. The shoulders are actually the most moveable joints in the body. This makes them very unstable if the muscles, ligaments, and tendons surrounding them are not strengthened. Since your shoulders are involved in the many daily movements that you make with your upper body, it is important to make sure that they have as much attention during your exercise as the rest of your body. What You Should Take Away from This Book When the shoulders are in top shape subsequently so are all areas that are attached to them instead of the other way around. Anyone who has ever suffered from a shoulder injury knows just how important this part of the arm and upper body is. However, with these exercises you will not end up with widely disproportionately shoulder muscles either. Instead you will use the weight training contained within to expand on the strength and size of your shoulders while simultaneously keeping them even with the rest of your body's size.
Download or read book Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff written by Jim Johnson and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Treat your own rotator cuff? Who needs to worry about that? According to the medical research, a lot of people. The rotator cuff, a group of four, flat tendons that connect to the critical muscles that stabilize your shoulder, can cause a lot more problems than you might think. Consider a few of these statistics from the published literature: .It's simply just a matter of time until the majority of shoulders get a rotator cuff tear. According to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, approximately 4% of people under forty years of age have a torn rotator cuff. After age sixty, however, 54% of people have one (Sher 1995). .Once the rotator cuff gets torn, it doesn't look good either. One study followed a group of patients with tears in their rotator cuffs and found that 80% of the them went on to either enlarge or turn into full thickness tears-in less than a two-year period (Yamanaka 1994). As you can tell, rotator cuff problems aren't just for elite athletes. Seriously consider investing just a few minutes a week doing the simple exercises in this book if you: .have been diagnosed with either a partial or full thickness rotator cuff tear (yes, many studies show that even full thickness tears can be helped with exercise ) .experience shoulder pain .do upper body weight lifting .have a job or play a sport where you do a lot of work with your arms above shoulder level .have been diagnosed with "impingement syndrome" .want a healthy and properly functioning rotator cuff So whether you already suffer from a rotator cuff problem, or simply want to prevent one, Treat Your Own Rotator Cuff will guide you step-by-step through an evidence-based program that can iron-plate your shoulders in just minutes a week.

Download or read book Reverse Bad Posture Exercises written by Morgan Sutherland and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reverse Bad Posture in Just 15 Minutes a Day Neglected postures, such as rounding your low back while sitting in front of the computer, standing for hours stooped over, sleeping improperly, and lifting poorly, can all lead to chronic back pain. In today's culture, everyone seems to be constantly plugged into an electronic device. Sedentary lifestyles result in hours spent with your body in a human question mark--head forward and shoulders rounding. Text Neck and Forward Head Posture Text neck has been used to describe the repetitive-use injury that occurs to your upper back, neck muscles, forearms, wrists, and hands caused by a combination of poor posture, excessive texting, and smartphone use. A common text neck symptom is a crick in the neck and upper shoulders. This can develop from overstressing your neck muscles from excessive texting, awkward sleep positions, harshly turning your head during exercise, and from clocking hours of poor posture hunched over your desk. If you have text neck, then it's also likely that you have rounded shoulders, which cause your upper back muscles to overstretch and tighten the chest muscles. This posture can potentially compress the brachial plexus, which can lead to a number of problems, ranging from numbness in the hands to thoracic outlet syndrome or carpal tunnel-like symptoms. Reverse Bad Posture Exercises to the Rescue! The 21 exercises in Reverse Bad Posture Exercises are designed to fix forward head posture, rounded shoulders, and hunched back posture in just 15 minutes per day. Take Reverse Bad Posture Exercises everywhere you go, and you can feel confident that you will be able to improve your posture and prevent traumatic neck, shoulder, and back pain episodes from wreaking havoc on your life. Remember, you are the best version of yourself when you adapt good posture habits. You'll feel happier, healthier, and maybe even look 3 inches taller.
