Anterior deltoid: The front part of the shoulder. Medial or lateral deltoid: The middle part of the shoulder. Posterior deltoid: The rear part of the shoulder. You have to work on all of these muscle group along with the trapezius muscle in the upper back, for a truly satisfying shoulder session To target these muscles, weight training exercises are considered the best. Muscle targeted: Deltoids, upper back and trapezius. Step 4: Pause for seconds and lower the weight back to the start position.
Muscles targeted: Shoulder, serratus anterior, upper back, and triceps Step 1: Start with coming to a modified high-plank position. Step 3: Again push the floor to come to the starting position and complete one repetition. Muscles targeted: Latissimus dorsi, posterior shoulder, rhomboids, scapular stabilizers and biceps Step 1: Stand straight in front of a barbell with your feet slightly apart from each other.
Muscles targeted: Deltoids, back and shoulder muscles Step 1: Lie on a flat bench with your feet resting on the floor. Step 3: Slowly lower the weights out to the sides to bring them in line with your shoulders. Step 4: Hold for seconds and then bring them back to the starting point.
Muscles targeted: Lateral deltoid, upper trap, supraspinatus and serratus anterior. Step 1: Stand straight with your feet hip-width apart and hold a dumbbell in both your hands. They grow the quickest when combining heavy compound movements such as the overhead press with smaller isolation lifts such as the lateral raise. Not only will they make our shoulders much rounder, but once we get them strong enough, they can also help to hold our shoulders in the right place, improving our posture and range of motion.
The rear delts work hard during bigger compound movements, such as rows and chin-ups. Then they can be targeted with the lighter assistance lifts, like face-pulls and rear-delt flyes.
That may be just fine for typing, but it can limit our range of motion and shave inches off of our shoulder breadth. The best thing we can do to improve our shoulder posture is to develop the strength to hold ourselves in the correct position. For more on that, we have an entire article about building a bigger and straighter upper back. To make a long story short, though, it can help to start with diagonal pressing variations, get strong at them, and then gradually work your way more vertical:.
Once we can press weights overhead with a deep range of motion and good form, it becomes much easier to build broader shoulders. It still helps to use lighter isolation lifts, but our shoulders will get rounder and more aesthetic simply from getting gradually stronger at the overhead press. If this still seems complicated, our bulking program will help walk you through the entire process of gaining muscle, improving posture, and building a strong overhead press.
So, to get on the same page about what that means, our traps are the muscles that connect our shoulders to our necks, allowing us to shrug our shoulders upwards. Because our traps are worked with both overhead pressing and lateral raises, as we build broader shoulders, we tend to build bigger traps. The rub is that some guys argue that having proportionally smaller traps will make our shoulders look squarer and broader by comparison. Shane mocked up an illustration so that we can see how it looks to have bigger or smaller traps when every other factor is held constant:.
If broad shoulders are attractive because they symbolize strength and masculinity—and they do—then the same principle should hold with our traps as well.
Furthermore, as men, we have tons of androgen receptors in our shoulder girdles, meaning that the more masculine we are, the bigger our shoulders and traps will be. As a result, mountainous traps combined with broad shoulders can give us a distinctly masculine look. Also keep in mind that most skinny guys have naturally longer and thinner necks, and building up bigger trap muscles is one of the best ways for a skinny guy to build up a more powerful neck.
The good news is that even if you have a narrower bone structure, you can still build bigger, broader shoulders. You still have quite a lot of control over your shoulder-to-waist ratio. With a workout program that properly trains your shoulders and a good bulking diet, you can build noticeably broader shoulders within a few months.

You touched on it in your write up, but I wanted to highlight the point. Thanks for reading and for the kind words David. Great progress, Jared!
I want to add, that from your first picture to the last, your bones have also grown. Studies have shown women prefer a ratio between the waist and shoulders to be around 0. We talk about this in our Ectomorph Aesthetics article , the ratio being 0.
My waist is about Is there a good way to measure clavicle length or be able to instantly tell if you have a long or short clavicle? In one of the studies, I believe they used a computer to measure radiographs x-rays of the clavicles because they can be hard to measure because of their shape.
Clavicle length was defined as the straight distance between the lateral-most point of the clavicle in the acromioclavicular joint closest to your arm and the medial-most point of the clavicle in the sternoclavicular joint your sternum. Then measure those points with the measuring tape.
One other thing to keep in mind is your left and right clavicle may not be symmetrical. No doubt about, broader shoulders are definitely a confidence builder. Best to tackle one thing at a time.
This is because their primary physiological function is not to be strong, but to move the arms around. While your pecs, biceps and lats will start to grow noticeably after a short amount of training, it takes much longer for your medial deltoids to develop. The shoulders are complex joints and highly vulnerable to injury. Train with weights that allow you to complete reps and in the meantime do plenty of pull ups — these will widen your back and contribute to your v-taper before your medial deltoids step up.
Yes broader shoulder men are more handsome according to women. This article is complete and very helpful guide for broader shoulders. Thank for the sharing with us.
Will be a lot of help for guys out there. So basically the measurement will include shoulder, chest, and back? I take it the tape should be above nipple but below clavicle? According to studies that we discuss in our Aesthetics article , the best ratio is 1. So if you have a 32 inch waist, your shoulder measurement should be: 52 inches. With my waist being From my understanding of the research, we value a lean waist with large shoulders because it signifies health and robustness.
The v-taper would go down to the hips. We measure at the widest measurement we can get, so that often means below the clavicle and above the nipple, yep. Jared, thanks so much for explaining this to me in detail.
Means a lot to me. I just have one doubt, though. It goes down to your hips, at which point it starts getting wide again. Seems like there are some miscers on BB. Kind of neat debate. At which point, you can do poses to really push things. An example that comes to mind is Frank Zane, where his shoulders are square to the photo to look their widest, but his core are rotated to appear even thinner. So online, maybe a case could be made.
One idea to think about would be to try and bulk up your obliques. Maybe in elite bodybuilding. There will be those who genetically will rise to the top and look remarkable even among the fittest people like Steve Reeves. We heard this question a lot so we developed Bony to Bombshell, our sister program, from the ground up just for women. Just looking into it a bit now. Teenagers are notorious for bad sleeping habits now and they need quite a lot of sleep.
So that means putting the phone down and TV away an hour or more before bed. Go to bed early enough to give yourself enough time to sleep, sleep in a dark and cool room, etc.
Simply put, I work each muscle directly 3 times every 2 weeks. Trial and error is a big component of bodybuilding I think, but it also leads to confusion from conflicting advice and numerous online arguments. The most hardgaineriest? At 45 I was six feet and Even at 60 I am still 6 feet and pounds. Several times over the decades I have tried to gain weight, had a weight room installed in my house, drank protein till it was coming out of my pores.
Even did testosterone supplements from my doctor. At one point with HGC but that was so ridiculously expensive I could not keep it up. I am not a hard gainer, in all those attempts I never gained a single pound.
People at body building sites just do not believe me and say some of the meanest things because as even you say ANYONE can gain weight. And I just want to tell you that is not true, most people can gain weight, but not all. Most recently last July I was embarrassed by my shape when an old friend came to visit and he had gone from portly to slim muscular.
So I started working out again in earnest, and the doctor has again put me on T. In fact 7 months later negative zip, I have lost 6 pounds. Use an overhand grip so your palms are facing down. This is the starting position. How to do it: -Grab a pair of dumbbells and sit on an incline bench with your arms straight down at your sides.
Then lower your arms, keeping control of the dumbbells the whole time. How to do it: -Use the rope attachment on the highest pulley of a cable weight machine. The key here is to keep the movement strict to really get the benefit of the exercise.
How to do it: -Bend over so your torso is parallel to the ground with dumbbells in each hand. Your thumbs should be pointing to the ceiling.
Unlike some of the other moves, which have an emphasis on bulking your upper body, this movement really hones in on shoulder health, Bryant says. Your toes will be touching the ground. Return them to the hanging position. This is 1 rep. This is a combination of two exercises.
