Not exact matches
Today, our rotator cuffs and
upper back
muscles are
weaker than ever, and this common issue poses a serious threat in the gym, where many bodybuilders are looking to squat as heavy as possible and use overhead pressing to develop strong
upper bodies, disregarding the fact that these two compound exercises require a very tight and stable
upper back.
As they are involved in many of your
upper body exercises (the bench press for example),
weak shoulders can also hinder the development of your chest and back
muscles.
Developing these small
muscles will help you achieve better symmetry and improved stability, prevent your shoulders from gowing too forward and give your
upper body that sought - after three dimensional look, while
weak rear delts can significantly limit your overall progress.
The reality is
weak wrists can limit how much development you get in
upper body muscles, like the triceps, biceps, chest, and shoulders, by restricting how much weight you can use.
