Shoulders Overhaul
From coat rack to refrigerator in 8 weeks!
by Christian Thibaudeau
I've had very narrow and unimpressive shoulders for a big part of my life. Call it genetics if you want; the fact is that my biacromial width was very small. Women would walk up to me and say, "You're cute, but your biacromial width just doesn't do it for me." Okay, they didn't really say that, but for my first years of training, despite putting on a significant amount of muscle, I always looked like a Neanderthal with narrow, rounded shoulders. It's a shame really, because the shoulder muscles can make or break your physique!
The delts are among the most important in the body yet many coaches recommend not training them directly. This is a big mistake! If anything, shoulder training should be the cornerstone of a good training program. I'll give you three reasons why:
