At-Home Workout Routines: Tone-Up the Deltoids

This lesson is part of the series: At Home Workouts - Upper Body, At Home Workouts - Full Body

Tone-up your deltoids! Watch this workout video and learn the easy and effective ways to get the results you want. In this video, Derek shows his fitness models how to correctly do the shoulder press to work out their delts. This exercise is an overall shoulder workout that can help firm up the anterior, middle, and the posterior muscle groups in your deltoids. First, Derek demonstrates how to do the exercise with slow, simple movements that follow along his step-by-step instructions. Then, he adjusts and corrects his fitness models on their posture and technique as they practice the routine.

Add variety to the exercise by putting on a different type of resistance or changing the position of your legs and hands to really feel the squeeze. Slow small movements, steady breathing and focusing on the isometric squeeze (the double pause) are key elements to getting the bodybuilding or toning results you want. Derek recommends doing 2 sets of 10 repetitions if you are a beginner, or 3 to 4 sets of 15 to 20 repetitions if you are more advanced.

Within the second half of the video lesson, Derek introduces a unique method of training called touch training, during the exercise touch the specific muscle group that you are working out. By touching that muscle group your mind focuses on squeezing it tighter, engaging more muscle fibers, and your body gets a better workout.

After watching this video you will know how to correctly do the exercise, maintain good form between each movement, keep a nice neutral spine, understand the number of reps and sets to do as as beginner or advanced trainee, and gain the benefits of touch training. You do not need any equipment to do this exercise. You can do this routine in the comfort of your own home or at the gym. Any fitness experienced accepted!
