Don’t Leave Out the Good Stuff

November 24, 2008

Even though we try to make sure that we are working every muscle group we can during our workout, we always manage to omit something. We all know that variety is the key to getting our bodies fit and in shape with mean muscles and a great six pack.

Don’t forget to add exercises for your traps and delts. You want to do upright rows for this muscle group because this form of exercise separates the front and middle delts from the trapezoids. Your body can really handle a beating with this one since you are working 2 for the price of 1.

You want to stand facing the cable machine with a low pulley. Attach E-Z Bar to the ground pulley, this type of bar is easy on the wrist, and keeping your knees bent, lift the bar to your chin and keep elbows high and to the sides. Lift with traps and delts.

Don’t forget the rear. We often ignore our rear delts and this can cause you bad posture. Lying flat bench rear delt raises are one of the best exercises that you can do to improve this muscle group.

Lie sideways on a flat bench, grab your dumbbells with your hand away from the bench surface, which is the side facing the ceiling. Holding the bell parallel to the floor, slowly laterally lift the dumbbell and keep a light bend in your elbow.

These are just two more tools of the trade to set you on your way to that lean muscle mass that you are working towards. We want our bodies to be shaped proportionally, not looking like we are about to topple over because we are unbalanced.

You should feel the burn with these exercises added to your routine. No need to do them everyday as we know that variety is the key. Change it up and find a place to add these to your workout. With a little research, you can probably find some other exercises that are great as well. Adding these changes will give you the results that you are striving for.
