Shoulder Definition

[lrusso]

I am always trying to get more and more shoulder definition. Just curious to know, what shoulder exercise seems to give you the best definition? TIA! Linda

I got great results from the shoulder exercises in Cross Train Express upper body split.

Thanks! I may have to pull that one out and give it a try!

Lose a little body fat and lift a little heavier especially with lateral raises.

Try to go heavier w/less reps. I find that gives me better shoulder definition than low weights/high reps. Overhead presses and lateral raises are tops for shoulder exercises IMO.

I'm the exact opposite. Just another example of how we're all different. I've done lower reps/heavy weights rotations as well, but for me shoulder exercises with higher reps/lighter weights get the most shoulder definition. I did a rotation of the newer Jari Love DVDs and some of Cathe's total body workouts (alternating between the 72min SS premix, HR original version, MM original version, and MIS), and got really great results in terms of definition. I couldn't lift heavier after the rotation--just had the look of more toned shoulders.

I am a high weight lower rep gal. Love upper body pyramid!

Pushups seem to work for me or moves where I'm in plank position.
