weird execrises?

Oh yeah, another one was like a front delt raise, except it went up to the opposite shoulder, felt it more in my chest than the front delt.

Bumping for interest

I don't see it much here but I do yoga at least 3 days a week for 20-60 minutes a session. I found it helped with DOMs and seeing how flexible one can get is pretty darn fun.

I also walk on my hands a lot. Started by practicing in a doorway with my feet "holding" on to the sides or top of the door for balance until I could just hand stand on my own. Went from there to hand stand pushups and now I can ALMOST do a walk over. which is my ultimate goal.

Do face pulls if you want to avoid looking like a slouched over neanderthal

weird exercises I've done:
>monkey rows for traps+delts
>lateral Paloff press, trains lots of stabilizers
>weighted hollow-body bridge holds for ur fuck muscles
>isometric bench hold

>>42543559
Should I do them instead of rows, or in addition? Aren't they hitting the traps just like shrugs?

>>42543572
oh, also bowing pushups, helps with sex in the missionary position

>>42543584
they hit more muscles than shrugs iirc

>reverse curls

Great exercise, since imo forearms > biceps/triceps. You still get some bicep work out of them, of course. Barbell curls are another good one for hitting forearms. I like to camp out at the fixed bar rack and alternate sets of supinated barbell curls and reverse barbell curls. Together they hit both sides of my forearms nicely. Throw in some pullups and double-overhand deadlifts, and you're all set as far as forearm development goes.

>>42543584
In addition to rows. And yes, facepulls hit the traps, but not the same way shrugs do.

>>42543629
Would it be good to alternate shrugs or facepulls, each workout? I liked how the facepulls felt, but I don't want to give up shrugs, and I don't want to pull or tear my traps either.

>>42543659
>Would it be good to alternate shrugs or facepulls, each workout?

Idk lol. Sounds good to me. Be sure to hold the contraction at the top of your shrug for a second before lowering the weight. Most people I see doing shrugs do them really fast, which robs you of gains. This is also what I used to do before I knew any better.

>>42543674
Same here. I also lean over slightly, so that I can retract my scapula as I shrug. With a barbell shrug, I do a wide snatch grip.

Back to 2D for me I guess

>>42543317
jefferson deadlifts, old style split snatches are both fun to do and work out the muscles a little differently than there traditional counterparts

damn really?
at least give me the insta so I can see for myself

Not bad looking at all, but she's not cute

Guillotine presses. Kills my shoulders, in a good way. No more awkward feeling than a regular OHP, except almost exclusively feel the lift in delts.

>>42545126
Only bad part about guillotines is the high potential for injury or death.

In addition to rows. They hit the traps as well but if done correctly they're mainly working your rear delts and rotator cuff, which is very important for shoulder health.
>>42543659
Bad idea to alternate, do your facepulls every day you're doing pushing motions.

>>42545261
>pushing motions
You mean pulling motions, right?

My pull day on PPLPPLx is getting full
>rows
>pullups
>two types of rows
>rear delt raises
>shrugs

Should I insert facepulls before shrugs?

facepulls will make your shoulder and back god tier - like roman/greek statue god tier

>>42543317
All memes except face pulls, but that's only because anterior delts are the single most undertrained muscle group and causes arguably the most common postural abnormality and could lead to further rotator cuff damage.

You can do any of these exercises if you like them though, just know that they're not "better" than any other curl, shoulder press, tricep extensions or row variation.

Cable, bands, or dumbbells?

How heavy?

>>42545048
what is her insta?

>>42545717
Cable or band, light and focus on rotating your shoulders back rather than pulling.

Could bust out some heavier seated ones for bodybuilding purposes though, but that might be counterproductive as far as health goes.

>>42545715
Hold the phone, I'm not the brightest individual when it comes to /fit/ topics, but are reverse curls really not useful? It's an entirely different feeling exercise (might be placebo-ing myself here) but I lift 10 pounds less on reverse than regular.

>>42547010
anyone doing this lift is actually retarded

>Alright we can do front squat or back squats
>nah man let's do their retarded cousin version instead that destroys your back and bruise your hands XD

>>42543317
>drag curls
this shit is PUMPFUCKINGTASTIC
I really really really like doing them.

>>42546035
Reverse curls are one of the best if not the best exercise for targeting and isolating the brachialis, which is usually the weakest link for most pronated heavy pulling exercise. That said, heavy pulling is still the best way to get good at heavy pulling.

You joke but this is very serious. We're seeing the rise of fascism again and it's scary. My girlfriend just called me from her other boyfriend's (open relationship, he's more of the physical boyfriend whereas I'm her emotional rock) apartment bawling her eyes out how right wing politics are on the rise again.

I just can't believe this is the state of things. Makes me feel so ashamed.
