Four moves of four working sets, plus one all-out burnout set—that’s
all IFBB physique pro Jake Alvarez says you need to build impressive,
balanced shoulders. Even more surprisingly, three of the four moves
focus on the rear delts and upper back. Why? Because that’s where most
of us are severely lacking—and setting ourselves up for future injuries.
According to Jake, this shoulder workout should take no more than 30
minutes. Whether your goals include putting big weights overhead or
just stretching the boundaries of your T-shirt, give this routine a ride
for the next few weeks and build a healthy, strong foundation for
future growth!
