SHOULDER ANATOMY
Shoulder muscles can be divided into 3 separate muscles
Ø The Anterior Deltoid
Ø The Middle Deltoid
Ø The Back Deltoid
THE ANTERIOR DELTOID
Targeting the anterior or FRONT DELTOID.
The frontal deltoid forms the roundness of the shoulder giving a square shape
when enlarged. The anterior is the largest and most visible of the three deltoid
muscles.
THE MIDDLE DELTOID
This is the most important to work for large and broad shoulders. The LATERAL DELTOID needs to "outsize" the anterior and the
back deltoids. It needs to stick out and protrude beyond the other two, forming
a very nice rounded shoulder.
The POSTERIOR
DELTOID or rear deltoid is
the smallest of the three, but from a side profile, it fills in the roundness and
gives the shoulder a good shape, strength and contour.
When training the shoulders, it is important to keep in mind the three
distinct muscle groups of the shoulders when choosing your routines, so that it
can provide worth full results for all of them. Often people can get stuck on a
routine because they seem to find they enjoy one movement and which results
into slow gains.
