Shoulder Strenghening

   
 

Nothing enhances an outfit like a pair of toned shoulders, especially when wearing sleeveless styles that are popular year-round in Hawaii. Here’s a simple exercise from the Hawaii Athletic Club that will help you shape up.  Your goal with each exercise is to do three to five sets of 15 to 20 repetitions.

Fit Tip of the Month:

Target Muscle: Shoulders


Take a 3-5 pound dumbbell, or heavier if you are stronger. Stand with your feet about shoulder width apart.  Pay attention to your posture; it’s important to stand with your shoulders back and your chest out, keeping your knees soft (not locked).  During this exercise, keep your head up.  It helps if you focus your eyes on an area above.

Grasp each end of the dumbbell with your hands and hold it in front of you, arms straight. Then lift the dumbbell straight up as demonstrated in the image. Still keeping your arms straight, lower the dumbell, and you’ve just completed one repetition.  Do three to five sets of 15 to 20 reps.
