Shoulder Exercise Guides – Photos and Instructions for Deltoids
There are three specific areas of your shoulders: anterior (front), lateral (side), and posterior (rear). Each gets specific attention from various shoulder exercises. The front shoulders flex and medially (inwardly) rotate the arm. The side shoulders abduct the arm (moves it away from the body). The rear shoulders extend the arm and cause lateral (outward) rotation. These functions of the shoulder muscles help in performing throwing and swinging activities such as pitching, passing, climbing, and racquet sports.
