Shoulders are, perhaps, the part of our body that impress the most and that best highlight our figure. It’s the first thing you see on someone, and that’s why we must strive to make them as wide as possible. Ideally, they should be rounded and well developed in all three parts or heads: front, side and

It is one of the forgotten exercises in terms of back work. However, it allows you to focus on your muscles, and thanks to supportive support, reduce the aid of inertia and impulse. It is a simple appliance whose end rests on a corner of the wall or support; the other receives the load, and

WE HELP YOU TO REDISCOVER AN OLD TECHNIQUE THAT HAS BECOME FASHIONABLE AGAIN Technically, PAP is a strategy in which muscle performance is markedly improved, as a result of a previous brutal contraction. In other words, a strong overload before an explosive activity causes a huge stimulation of the Central Nervous System that produces a

THIS SUPER SET WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOU The superset is a training principle consisting of doing two exercises together, generally of antagonistic muscles (biceps-triceps; chest back; quads-femoral), without rest – except the essential move of going from one exercise to another and load or unload weights. In this way, the blood circulates continuously

This exercise affects the biceps brachii and its external head, the seat of the “beak” that has, to a large extent, a genetic condition, but that can be modified in favor if the movements are done well. The brachial and bracradial work intensively, especially if we start with a neutral grip, and repeat during the

When we talk about the biceps muscle in our arms, we refer to the biceps brachii, a muscle with a particular capacity for development made up of 2 extremes: the long head, which is located on the outside of the arm, and the short head, located on the inside. The objective of the biceps brachii

MUSCLES WORKED This position has a great impact on the dorsal major muscle which means that it is the main one involved in the movement. Likewise, the brachial biceps help in the exercise because we also do elbow flexion. We must remember that the brachialis, bracorradial, the round major, rear deltoid, infraspinatus, the round minor,

It is one of the few exercises for the posterior deltoid that you can do in isolation, apart from the work you receive in shoulder extension movements, such as paddles and dorsal pulls. EXERCISE EXECUTION Stand, holding dumbbells with a neutral grip. Lean forward until your torso is parallel to the ground, keeping your knees

As with almost everything in life, we would do wisely in thinking it over carefully in advance. As coaches, we would have to consider the situation of each individual, and we could group people into three categories: • People who have never ever trained with weights • People who at some point in their life

A broad, dense and rocky back is one of the athlete’s main feats and perhaps what best defines his strength. It’s a complex muscle group, divided into 3 basic parts (dorsal, trapezius and lumbar) the complete development of which provides us with the much sought-after v-line, or notable expansion from the waist to the shoulders,

MUSCLES YOU ARE WORKING OUT. You’re working out all four parts that make up the quadriceps, i.e. the muscle that occupies the front part of your thigh. It’s made up of: vastus lateralis (outer part of the thigh), vastus medialis (the “teardrop”), vastus intermedius (central area) and rectus femoris (along the front thigh). They are

One of your basic back exercises, alongside pull-ups and pulley exercises, excellent for adding amplitude, density and thickness to the back of your torso. HOW TO DO EXERCISE Standing upright, place your feet shoulder-width apart, bend forwards with your back upright, face forward and hands hip-width apart, holding the barbell slightly over the ground; first,

Achieving firm abs and a slim waist is more a diet thing than an exercise thing. In order for your six-pack to show up and your middle section to get smaller, your caloric consumption must be larger than your intake. That’s why it’s no use to accumulate abs exercises, as they are already being used

Chest and back are key upper body muscles. They are not only essential for health and functionality but also for creating perfect overall shape; they help to enhance aesthetics by enhancing the difference between the shoulders and the waist, giving that much-sought look of athletes and models of both genders. They also help to create

This popular gym exercise targets that muscle group that can never be big enough for most athletes. For this version, we use dumbbells alternately, so one of them goes up and down first and then the other does the same. You can also synchronize the movement by raising one dumbbell to the finish position at

Everyone who goes to the gym wants to have large, defined arms, with noticeably peaked biceps and big, horseshoe shaped triceps. This is the body part other people will ask for advice on first. “Take out the ball”, children and adults often say when they see an eye-catching arm. Well, that’s what this article is
