The shoulder muscles are the front deltoids, posterior deltoids and the trapezius muscles. These muscles are not used extensively and consequently they often become weak and prone to injury. You can increase their strength by performing these weightless exercises
Push-ups
Keep your arms spaced out about the shoulder width of your body and place them on the floor. Your feet should be together with your weight on the balls of your feet, your toes pulled back. Your body should be straight and parallel to the floor. Do not stick your bum in the air or allow the body to collapse to the floor. Lower your body inhaling as you do so. Hold for at least 2 seconds. Then exhale as you return to the original position. Perform 3 sets of as many reps as you can. Stop your rep count when you start to fail.
Lateral Raises
Stand straight with your head and body facing forward. Your feet should be hip width apart with your toes pointing forward. Lift your arms out to the side until they are parallel to the ground. Hold the position for 2 seconds then lower the arms. Repeat 12 – 15 times. Perform 3 sets of these reps.
Front Deltoid Raises
Stand upright placing your feet out hip width apart. Start with your arms down at your hip, then lift them up straight forward until they are level with your front shoulder muscles. Hold the position for 2 seconds then lower the arms. Repeat 12 – 15 times. Perform 3 sets of these reps.
Standing Shoulder Press
Stand upright lift your arms to the side and bend your elbows at a 90 degree angle with your palms facing forward. Slowly lift your arms straight to the top until you reach a full range or motion.
