I’ve been working hard to round those shoulders! When I first began weight training, I was a stickler with using proper form. I refused to increase weight if it meant even a small sacrifice to form. For awhile, I got caught up in the “lift heavy” advice I saw posted everywhere, and I allowed my form to slide in order to improve strength. Recently, I’ve been decreasing weight to focus more on form, and seeing great results!

Tip of the Day: Angled movements = greater range of motion = results. You may notice a variation to a common dumbbell side lateral raise in today’s workout; this angled modification provides great benefits. First off, the movement itself is performs with an angle, which can be created by grasping onto an upright object with one hand, allowing the body to lean to the otherside. This is simply a technique I incorporate to avoid muscle adaptation. Doing the exact same exercise or practicing the same skill becomes easier each time. By performing a standard side lateral raise on an angle, you are preventing your body from expecting what is to come.
