The rear delt raise, also known as the rear deltoid raise, or rear shoulder raise is an exercise in weight training. This exercise is an isolation exercise that heavily works the posterior deltoid muscle. The movement is primarily limited to the two shoulder joints: the glenohumeral joint and the scapulothoracic joint.
The deltoids are the muscles that cover the front, back and side of the shoulder joint — and they are essential for everyday movements like raising your arms, lifting a child or carrying groceries.
The face pull is a weight training exercise that primarily targets the musculature of the upper back and shoulders, namely the posterior deltoids, trapezius, rhomboids, Latissimus dorsi as well as the biceps. [1] The face pull is considered an important exercise for shoulder health and stability. [2]
The deltoid muscle is the muscle [1] forming the rounded contour of the human shoulder. It is also known as the 'common shoulder muscle', particularly in other animals such as the domestic cat. Anatomically, the deltoid muscle is made up of three distinct sets of muscle fibers, namely the anterior or clavicular part (pars clavicularis)
At its core, the deadlift is a movement pattern that involves lifting weight from the ground to a standing position which engages a number of different muscles. Plus, it's such a self-esteem boost.
The primary exercises for developing the posterior chain are the Olympic lifts, squats, [1] good-mornings, bent-over rows, deadlifts, [1] pull-ups and hyperextensions. The common denominator among many of these movements is a focus on hip extension, excluding bent-over rows and pull ups. Working on hamstrings is also important.
Additionally, try incorporating lightweight, high-repetition strengthening exercises for your shoulder blade muscles, such as lateral raises, front raises and overhead presses. 4. Sitting
This movement, when the shoulder is kept in neutral rotation, primarily targets the middle head of the deltoid. The anterior (front) and posterior (back) heads of the deltoid will also co-contract to aid in the abduction function. If the shoulder is laterally (externally, outwardly) rotated, the anterior deltoid becomes the prime mover of the ...
