Exercises That Build MUSCULAR Shoulders After 50 (DO THESE 3 EXERCISES!)

As men over 50, having a muscular upper body is something we all want to have. From a broad back, a firm chest, toned abs, and sleeve-ripping arms. However, shoulders are also on that list. Having rounded boulder shoulders help complete the look of the muscular upper body. So, the next time you are working out, make sure you remember to work your shoulders when building your upper body.

The shoulders are a small muscle group, so they do not require a lot of work to build them. There are exercises you can do to build shoulder mass, and there are exercises that help shape them to give them the boulder shoulder rounded-look. Make sure to do both kinds of exercises to build muscular shoulders after 50.

Here are the exercises that build muscular shoulders after 50:

Exercise #1: DUMBBELL SHOULDER PRESS

Exercise #2: CABLE LATERAL RAISES

Exercise #3: CHEST SUPPORTED REAR DELT FLY

Add these exercises to your next shoulder workout to build boulder shoulders after 50!

I absolutely love your videos. I've learnt so much from you. I've only been lifting for 8 weeks

Because of a huge right shoulder rotator cuff injury & surgery, I can only perform 15 lateral raise with 5 pound weights. The weakness impacts other exercises.

But hey, at age 73 this doesn’t stop me from going to the gym or using resistance bands at home!

I'm 65 and just had an MRI done on my left shoulder...minor tears in my rotator cuff. The Orthopedist told me to stop doing side lateral and front lateral raises. Now I perform a raise in between the two. like a "Y" raise. I still do a side lat raise with the cable, but with light weights. My shoulder bothers me if I sit too long in my office chair, other than that, I really don't feel it working out. I did aggravate it doing some bent over single arm db rows, but it's feeling better now.

My favourite shoulder exercise was lifting drywall at work then holding it to the ceiling, then someone unplugged your drill by accident, lol, now I like to do shrugs, nice quick and simple

I know when I sleep in my bed I have a habit of sleeping on my shoulders. I don't sleep in the bed anymore. I'm single so I sleep in my camping hammock in my spare bedroom. This forces me to sleep mostly on my back. I don't wake up in the middle of the night with painful shoulders anymore and my shoulder work outs are so much better. I've been sleeping in my hammock for about month now and actually get more sleep.

I'm 73 and have several years of lifting since the 1960s. Of course, my shoulders have taken a beating over the years. But mostly my hands are shot. I have arthritis in my thumbs and wrists. So to compensate I have graduated to using bands. I have a full squat rack at home. As for dumbbells, my grip most days is painful. What are some of the best band movements for shoulders? I typically do the same workouts I have done with dumbells but now with bands.

Could you please do a video on how to do pullups at home, without using those crappy door pullup bars at Walmart. 🙏

[marioesbri]

Great exercise ideas, thanks. Just one question, at what angles should I place the bench back?

[lmc]

the landmine press is a nice overhead movement if shoulders are delicate, rest the landmine on a gym box/bench so you dont have to pick it up from the floor all the time.

[jasonmaltz]

Thanks for the video. How many sets/reps should we do on each?

[georgemcfly]

Is there an email you use? I can ask you more in-depth question about being older and where your testosterone levels should range around?

[ceciljohnson]

What weight dumbbells should I be using? I'm over 65

Paddling my canoe for 10 to 14 days is my favorite exercise
