One movement, wide shoulders and a strong figure
For many of our bodybuilders, in the process of fitness training, there should be such a fitness goal, that is, to make our body stronger. In my opinion, if we can If you train your shoulders to be wider, then it can help us to build a strong body to a large extent, so how can we train our shoulders to be wider?
Regarding such a question, what I want to tell you is that if we want to develop broad shoulders, it is very important to master such a training movement.
This training action is our barbell shoulder press. In the following content, I will introduce this action to you from two aspects, hoping to help you.
- Training effect of barbell shoulder press
The reason why I said that the barbell shoulder press is a necessary training movement for us to strengthen our shoulders is because this movement is one of the few heavy weight training movements in our shoulder training.
What we have to know is that if most of the muscles in our body want to grow, then that part of the muscles needs to withstand a certain amount of heavy training stimulation.
When our muscles are stimulated by heavy weight, we can achieve a good growth effect to a large extent, so that our muscle mass can increase.
That is to say, when we are doing shoulder training, if we can better perform the training action of barbell shoulder press, then we can make the shoulder muscles grow well, so that our shoulders got bigger.
Moreover, we should also know that the barbell shoulder press action can also improve our shoulder muscle strength to a large extent, so that our upper body muscle strength can be well improved.
Second, how to do a good job of barbell shoulder press
In the previous content, I told you about the training effect of the barbell shoulder press, but if we want to obtain these better training effects when doing the barbell shoulder press.
Then we need to do a good job of the barbell shoulder press. In my opinion, when we do the barbell shoulder press, we need to do these three important points.
One, that is, we need to tighten our core during the barbell shoulder press, so that we can maintain the stability of our body during the movement and avoid some shaking of the body.
Second, when we move, we need to achieve fast rise and slow fall, that is, when pushing the barbell, our movement speed needs to be faster, and then the barbell needs to be slower in the process of descending, about Lasts for about four seconds.
The third is that we need to control our range of motion. Generally speaking, when the barbell is descending, let the barbell be at the position of your chin, and then let your elbows straighten when the barbell is rising. But don't hyperextend.
