I see how this could save time, but your get more gains by doing separate sets of each movement one for each muscle group, with proper rest in between to reduce the effects of systemic fatigue. I especially like to do full sets of the rear delt movement because my front delts are worked hard enough on other pressing exercises in my program.
I just have to tell you, those cross body reverse curls, supinating the wrist for the brachiradialis are amazing,, I've even managed to adjust the plain of motion to influence either the top section or the lower portion,, absolutely great move,,,also those twisting one arm cable curls are fantastic as well,,,great results doing both,,where were you 20 years ago with all this great knowledge???!!!!......lol
We are really living in a golden age of internet. All this detailed info on a click of a button AND for free is just amazing. Thank you very much sir, your work is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your concise yet thorough and correct explanations of why a particular form (body position) is important. AND, thank you for giving an overview of how the exercise is performed at the beginning of your video. That way, viewers will not get bored with technical explanations before you get to the exercise. Personally, because I am a medical professional, I enjoy the anatomy and kinesiology lessons. That is, the details of "why" an exercise is performed in a certain way and why other positions may cause injury. I have viewed many exercise videos and you are the best.
@@DrGains oh definitely, my main issue with the delts was always that darn 3x isolation, on two sides no less! it would seriously take up a big chunk of my routine. now ive finally compressed it to the optimal levels, again thank you so much! a very good, very underrated channel.
It's easy to see you are training all three deltoid muscles with a single exercise. The exercise is compound and rather complex, but with some practice with light weight to begin, I should be able to develop the proper forms for correct execution. Well done!
I have sprained my shoulder many years ago so I’m careful with just throwing weight Around I never follow the crowd I read About this stuff and this is very good
I'll add that to my to-do list! Feel free to also use the feedback / request form I put in the video description for that and any other content you'd like to see - it'll help push it up my priority list, and I can notify you when the content you requested is available 👍
I just cant wait for some these health issues ive developed to clear up. I will dedicate my entire body to Dr. Kamalus training techniques. His style is just lites out comparable to none. In just short 2 weeks before my health failed me i was able to make significant gains to my muscles than i ever had. With no pains. Im coming Doc and cannot wait. Stay safe stay strong! ☝️💪
Lol, 2 clueless doctors: one pretend one Michael Kamalu and one real one Orthopedic Surgeon Henry Suhendra, M.D. Anatomy isn't the only field of knowledge necessary to designing exercises that safely and effectively target specific groups of muscle fibers. Among a number of notable shortcomings of domain-relevant knowledge, Michael Kamalu has an obviously limited understanding of exercise mechanics. What makes you think you're experts in fields that you haven't formally studied? What would you think about someone who didn't complete their biomedical degree pretending to be an biomedical engineer and making videos about how to do the orthopedic surgeries you perform?
Hey doc! First of all i love your exercises and i benefit of it allot! But i have a question about this exercise. When you demonstrate the exercise. With the first move i see you also srugg your shoulders. So are you not helping your exterior delt a bit with the weights?
Bent over barbell row with partial reps at the top does hit the rear deltoids really good. I only know arms "chicken wings" movement really hit all of deltoids. 🤷🤷

I appreciate the detailed analysis of your videos. I do have a question on whether the development of the heads could vary as such to negate the effectiveness of a single chosen dumbbell weight to equally challenge all three heads. What about bands?
Hey, can you make a video so that we can do only 2 excersizes per muscle group everyday? I'm asking this because i can't allocate much time to training per day. I'm merely asking this so that i can stay fit. I'm willing to take 1 day break too.
I just did these without weights and my shoulders like it :). I feel like i had a lot of abduction with internal rotation playing baseball so im trying to do good shoulder exercises to give my rotator cuff tendons a chance
Most people do and it's absolutely horrible for the shoulders! It's a big part of how I developed impingement syndrome myself in high school before I knew what I was doing. Glad I could help! If you have any symptoms yourself and really want to reverse it and maintain healthy shoulders while still being able to build muscle.. you should check out my Gains Without Pains Total Shoulder Program 👊 (link in video description)
I think this is great for people with little time on their hands. If you can only dedicate 3-4 days to the gym this seems effective for time management, but i don't have a life so i'd rather work out all 3 delts separately for maximum gains.
Good to see the Biomechanics of front delt exercises, myself i have good chest development but poor front delts so this is useful, some like my son grows front delts easily but lags in the chest, also of note steroid users have no problem with front delts. Another good front delt exercise is lying flat on a bench palms facing toward you forearms at 90deg to bench and press up ala Doug Brignole style, cheers for the ideas
this is cool-ish, one potential issue : Some people myself incl, is very "trap dominant". Im going to try this, but I think esp step 1 of this excercise easily will be just traps for me. Honestly it looks like this hits your traps as well. I think this is a cool and "natural" thing, I like that, but i definately think better isolation excercises is necessary. Another issue is the weights. "Forcing" the same weight.. Normally I do overhead press (front delt) with 80lbs 35kg pr hand, while i use 15lbs 7kg for side delt. So this all leads me to this question : Why ? Is it like : " with this exercise youll train both pecs and ass.. So what ? Why is this a goal ? Should it be ? I cant see why.
How much tension remains on them? I am skeptical as the main key of tut is to engage metabolic effect, and consistent tension. I already exhaust everything in 15 minutes for my entire upper body to the point it takes over a week for the strength to return in the higher order muscle fibers. Also since the anterior delt is worked in TONS of exercises, it’s way too easy to overtrain if a person goes to true failure. These are my challenges to this approach.
Thanks a lot. Please i wanted to ask: 1-what about the neutral grip in front raises? 2- i know that the more wider grip the more lateral delts involvement you have, but does that also apply when you are suppinated? can you go wider thant shoulder width and still be on Front delt?
Well from all the gym rats I know with capped delts nobody does this combo exercise. I like your channel and I have been subbed for a while but the exercises I have lately seen are useless alot of made up combo exercises which no one does. I’m not saying they are wrong but does anyone really need them? Why do you combine different movements in the first place? I do not think it is optimal for muscle gains as Sean Nal says. The reason is we can handle different weights in different planes of motion with different muscles for example everyone can handle way much weight with their front delts than any other delt head part of that is because it is overdeveloped in a lot of individuals but another reason is the muscle essentially is put in a more advantageous position compared to the other heads to move weights.
There are many exercises you don't necessarily need to do. So what? This is a just another option, that's all! One might try this for the sake of saving time, since it hits all three heads. Is it as effective? Who knows? Would you rather he put out another video on lateral raises, just like the other 10,000 already on RUclips?
@@dr.d4957 So don’t do them. Thats my point. He is becoming like other influencers when they start running out of ideas they start making up new exercises. I was talking about the poor efficiency in combo* exercises but you probably missed that. And yeah exactly we don’t know how effective this exercise is while we know about the effectiveness of other basic exercises like lateral raises for growing the mid delt so if you really wanna save time in the gym do what the research says instead of doing some unknown exercise. The anatomy in the video is correct and I love his explanations I am not gonna take that away from him however my problem is the weight remains constant in this exercise and other combo* exercises which is not optimal for muscle growth as you are stronger in performing different motions than others. Edit: I meant combo instead of compound
You're right, like athlean x, they run out of real content and need to make up questionable combos and exercises to generate $ since all their basic stuff has already been posted. Check out Doug Brignole, he posts the same exercises only since he thinks they're the best.
I agree too...the only person who created new exercises and some that actually worked was Vince gironda. Strangely the doctor has not responded to your comments... He is already making a lot of dough from us suckers....lol. ... Look at his membership channel....over 50 dollars a month to access his mumbo jumbo on combining 101 movements However I forgot to mention one very important thing over athlean x and Sean ...etc and all those pin and needle guys.....this Dr is natural....so maybe his training might work for us natural plp
Not liking this, why? Because you're not getting enough reps for each part of your deltoid unless you do 16 sets of this. Better off separating them into dedicated exercises for each part.
@Dr. Gains great he runs multiple channels to where he is playing different characters. His most famous channel is when he is using alot of abrasive short words he only does it for the clicks you also has a strictly professional channel if that is what you are into but it doesn't generate nearly as much clicks because ppl like drama. That is the only reason why he acts that way. I just needed to tell you just in case his behavior turned you off.
Doctor, I am having a lot of difficulty in holding the dumbbells in a supinated position with straight arms (supination in a bent arm position is not perfect, but managable) which is the end position of the front delt press. It starts to pain just below the elbow, on the lateral side of the forearm flexor compartment.
It's difficult to hide the truth Michael. He's not a doctor. He dropped out of med school to focus on business. I'm not surprised that this exercise isn't working well for you. Michael Kamalu doesn't have expertise in this domain - it's obvious he hasn't studied it formally in an academic setting.
Great stuff about the angles and so important to know your anatomy. And you are absolutely right that most people are doing palm facing down on the anterior deltoid exercise. So you don't recommend straight arms when doing lateral raises? I understand less pressure on the elbow joint but almost every is doing straight arms or semi straight lateral raises. But 90 degrees is better ? In the gym where I go we have a lateral raises machine where you can only do 90 degrees angle and it's awesome. But I mean with dumbbells also ? I will give it try 👍😁
Hey I have a question regarding a muscle group, there's a muscle right below the rear delt that is when developed looks like another deltoid muscle but it looks to be originating below the rear delt but connecting to the back side of the arm bone, I tried to find what those muscles are and I think they're teres major and minor (probably) The best example of this is Alex Leonidas when he does any row or rear delt exercise, it pumps up, it looks like big eyes oval shape thing, I want to know what those muscles are and how to bias them, because my back is almost flat
I've noted that the Kamalu type exercises are often a combo type, but use the same weight for each muscle in the movement. Assuming that not all muscles in the movement have the same strength/capability/range/etc., can you callout some kind of metric like muscle X is N% weaker than the other two, and will be working harder? The goal is to avoid unproportional growth.
I'll add that to my to-do list! Feel free to also use the feedback / request form I put in the video description for that and any other content you'd like to see - it'll help push it up my priority list, and I can notify you when the content you requested is available 👍
Do you have a link or suggestions for a Labrum tear repair rehab and strengthening? I am 4 weeks recovering from my surgery repair and there is still some pain and tenderness. The tear was from 12 to 6 o' clock. Thank you.
@DrGains Your website gets blocked because it contains "phishing" warnings. Might want to change the setup of your site so it isn't seen as potential threat.
Consider using the word "shortening" instead of contraction because the technical definition of "muscle contraction" is "the activation of tension-generating sites within muscle cells." So, muscle contraction does not necessarily mean muscle shortening because muscle tension can be produced without changes in muscle length. Therefore "full contraction" needs to be disambiguated from "full shortening." "Full contraction" or maximum tension generation is most likely going to occur in the joint positions in the exercise where the resistance torque is the greatest, not in the joint positions where the muscle is the shortest.
Great input. I often use "contraction" colloquially and out of habit.. but I'll consider switching that up to avoid potential conflation. Thanks for the feedback 👍
another important point, is to keep the shoulder in the socket the whole time. it is easy, going too heavy, for the shoulder to come out of socket, and you hunch the shoulders - not good.
Still haven’t worked the logic in any if these videos. Just because you can work all the muscles in one movement doesn’t mean it is has any more value, in fact it has less. Unless u have only 15 minutes a week to work on shoulder development
Why people doing exercises with different way ? Is your technique have any scientific evidence or prove ? And I want chest and bicep like arnold schwarzenegger so can you upload chest and bicep workout because i want same chest and bicep like arnold… sir following you from bangladesh 🇧🇩 hope u will help me 🙏

Hey I have a question regarding a muscle group, there's a muscle right below the rear delt that is when developed looks like another deltoid muscle but it looks to be originating below the rear delt but connecting to the back side of the arm bone, I tried to find what those muscles are and I think they're teres major and minor (probably)
The best example of this is Alex Leonidas when he does any row or rear delt exercise, it pumps up, it looks like big eyes oval shape thing, I want to know what those muscles are and how to bias them, because my back is almost flat
I've noted that the Kamalu type exercises are often a combo type, but use the same weight for each muscle in the movement.

Not soo sure how practical those shoulders exercises are hmmmmmm
Yes but you have different max loads for each "head "

another important point, is to keep the shoulder in the socket the whole time. it is easy, going too heavy, for the shoulder to come out of socket, and you hunch the shoulders - not good.
Super
Thank you!
Doc, how can you effectively work your lateral delts with a ketlebell? I've been having problems doing this technique with a ketlebell. Thanks!
I mean depends on how heavy the kettlebell is. Try upright rows
Where's part 3 of forearms video?

Still haven’t worked the logic in any if these videos. Just because you can work all the muscles in one movement doesn’t mean it is has any more value, in fact it has less. Unless u have only 15 minutes a week to work on shoulder development
Its also very unlikely that one single amount of weight would be ideal or effective for sll 3 heads.
