Have an elastic band? So you already have more than half done. Because what we are going to do today is to exercise or work our shoulders in a simple and simple way with the bands. Because we must apply correct exercises to see better results!
It is true that there may be several options for improve this part of the body, but surely with this one, it will seem very simple. With just a few minutes a day, you will have more than enough. Are you ready or ready to take the plunge? We started!
Shoulder press with elastic band
It is one of the more basic exercises, but in this case we are not going to use anything other than the elastic band. Therefore, we must hold our complement well. We will do it with our feet and hold the other part with our hands. Now that we have the first step, we must bend the elbows and stretch the arm upwards, until they feel almost fully stretched. Try not to force or stretch them too much, since what we want is to maintain and control the force and therefore, we will do each movement rather slow and feeling the stretch to the maximum.
Band openings
In this case, it is another of those exercises that we know well and that will be perfect for warm up the shoulder part. So if you are going to do other subsequent charging, nothing like heating in this way. You can do it both standing up and lying on your back. Since the exercise itself consists of holding the band with both hands. Trying not to be too tight. Now we will have to open arms to both sides but without flexing elbows, making the band stretch. We will repeat several times without raising the shoulders.
Lateral raises
Because as we know, elevations or openings they can be very varied. In this case, we will make them lateral. We're going to give the delts some movement with an exercise like this. Again, we have to step on the band with our feet, to keep it well supported with them. Then the elevations will be to both sides. That is, openings, stretching the rubber until the arms can be crossed. But as we have mentioned before, we should never exaggerate the gesture too much or strain the arm too much.
Single arm movement
Logically, we will have to vary the arm, to be able to complete another of the exercises that we also love, since it really is also part of the training of the shoulder and arms in general. But in this case, we are going to need to hold the band on one side. With one hand, we hold the band and slightly flex the elbow but without twisting the trunk. You can keep the elbow close to your body and each exercise will have to be done calmly, really feeling the movement, but not only in the forearm, but in the entire rest of the arm.
Exercises the triceps
Because the shoulders will also allow us to give a little importance, in this case, to the Triceps. Since it also becomes another of the greats that we also need to exercise a lot. We start by stepping on the rubber again to adjust it well to the ground. We take one of its ends with each hand. Then, we will start with the elbows bent and close to the body, and then we will stretch them but backwards. So that they are stretched, and reaching the rubber back, as we mentioned. We will do a slight rotation, although we do not notice it too much. Of course, try not to move your body and, like the rest of the exercises, it is not convenient to do them very fast, but rather more repetitions and feeling what we are doing.
