The shoulders are a complex joint with several muscles that work together to perform various movements. Here are a few exercises you can do with a Lecardio resistance band to target your shoulders:
- Overhead Press: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and the Lecardio resistance band under your feet. Hold the band with both hands and bring your arms up overhead. Keeping your elbows close to your ears, press the band up, then lower it back down to the starting position. Repeat for 10-15 repetitions.
- Lateral Raises: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and the Lecardio resistance band under your feet. Hold the band with both hands and raise your arms out to the sides until they're level with your shoulders. Lower your arms back down to the starting position. Repeat for 10-15 repetitions.
- Front Raises: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and the Lecardio resistance band under your feet. Hold the band with both hands and raise your arms up in front of you until they're level with your shoulders. Lower your arms back down to the starting position. Repeat for 10-15 repetitions.
- Reverse Fly: Stand with your feet hip-width apart and the Lecardio resistance band under your feet. Hold the band with both hands and extend your arms out in front of you. Keeping your back straight, raise your arms out to the sides until they're level with your shoulders. Lower your arms back down to the starting position. Repeat for 10-15 repetitions.
It's important to engage your shoulders and maintain proper form during these exercises. Start with a low resistance Lecardio band and gradually increase the resistance as you get stronger. Incorporate these exercises into your workout routine to target your shoulders and improve upper body strength.
