I DO ALL THIS BEFORE STARTING UPPERBODY WORKOUT. NO MORE SHOULDER PAIN. ITS AMAZING. I DO 9 SETS 3 EXERCISES
Same! In my early 40's now and I can agree to this that taking the time before any upper body movements has greatly reduced the shoulder pain I used to have. Younger generation take notes, makes all the difference in the world
Just recovering from severe rotator cuff tendinitis,Holy Crap the pain level was off the charts.I will be incorporating these exercises pre workout.
Thanks for great information, as always, and happy Easter , he is risen
Happy Easter!!
I agree 100 percent. In my 20’s I never warmed up before I would start benching. Fast forward 25 years and I try and start every workout with warm up band movement’s for the shoulders, elbows and bicep/triceps.
That's a great way to start a workout! Thanks for watching!
in the last year or so i have been having rotator cuff issues, so this information is absolute gold.
Glad you're finding it useful!!
TRINI DO THEM. THEY WORK. NO MORE PAIN
@@leelunk8235 to be honest with you i injured my rotator cuff and it took 6 months to heal one of the worst pains i have ever experienced. dorian yates shows the same exercises that labrada has shown i used them and they worked a treat.
@@leelunk8235 i do use them. dorian yates talked about these exercises on video about two years ago. i used them after injurying my rotator cuff two years ago
Like many other comments saying how valuable this information is, 100% agreed. Now that I'm in my early 40's and just over 20 years training, doing internal and external rotation exercises before any upper body movement has been an absolute game changer in how my shoulders feel. Just take the 5 minutes now for pain free shoulders in the future.
Thanks Lee as always and thank you Gene. You are obviously very knowledgeable about kinesiology and muscle training just like your brother Lee.
Knowledge is power!! 💪🏼
I have done these before but I stopped a while ago. I will work these back into my routine. I'm 68 y.o. and have been lifting all my life. I have had lots of problems with my shoulders (can't do overhead or barbell bench presses, behind the back triceps presses or dips any longer), so I have to substitute other exercises to work certain body parts that don't injure my shoulders. I've had good luck with dumbbell bench presses, lateral raises, triceps pulley pressdowns, skullcrushers, etc. but I still want to provide as much shoulder support as I can. Thanks for the instruction. Liked and subscribed.
Fantastic advise!
Thanks Mark!
Especially dips and behind the neck presses or military presses .should do dumbell shoulder presses keeping a more natural plane moving them
More naturally.and this video rocks lee !💪👍
Thanks for watching James! Hope you had a great weekend!
Good advice 💪🏽
Amazing knowledge, little things make a difference all the videos you do. ❤Thank you, God and Lee, for all you provide us ❤ can't wait for the next one ❤
Absolutely! Thank YOU! We appreciate you watching.
Thanks for the tip very useful
Glad you found it useful!
Great video Lee.:)
Thanks for watching!
Great warm up, better to use the cables.
But if you do it before your workout will it pre-fatigue your rotator and make it MORE likely to he injured? 🤔 Or would it be better to do it on a separate day? 🧐
Thanks so much for making this video. Unfortunately, it's a little late for me. I have some tears in my rotator cuff and have been training "around" the injury. A week ago Friday, I was doing my "Arms" workout, I had already completed 2 triceps and biceps super sets. I moved onto my 3rd super set, the skull crushers went just fine. I picked up a pair of 25 lbs. db's to perform some hammer curls...on the very first curl, something in my mid outer bicep felt like someone stabbed me with a red hot knife and something either twisted or ripped. I had an MRI done Wednesday but the doctor (Orthopedist) can't see me until April 16. I haven't done any upper body workouts since, all lower body and cardio. The irony of it all is since that painful experience, my arm hurts less when I reach around my back, I feel discomfort when I raise my arm up an across my body and when I go to pick up my saxophone (yes, I play music). Before any upper body workout, I would perform the exact warm up exercises that you showed here (I saw it in one of Hunter's videos from years ago when he was just starting on his body building journey). The thing is, I saw this after I had already injured my shoulders a few years ago attempting to lateral raise 40 lbs db's...stupid, I know.
Sorry to hear about your injuries James... Hope you get better soon!
@@Labrada thank you.
Great info!
Thanks timer 💪
Thanks for tuning in!
@@Labrada always learning from the greats
How many sets and reps of each?
Wouldn’t it be more effective to take the deltoid out of the equation by resting your elbow?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I wish i know that before i have full tear now .....
How are you 2 related?
I use Biomechanics by Doug Brignole I don’t do any press and no bench press My delts and chess are big and never do any press. Safe your self from those exercises
GREETİNGS COMRADE 🇹🇷♥️✌️
