The first small muscle group we will focus on is the shoulders. The best exercise for building the shoulders is a barbell or dumbell shoulder press. This is the mass and strength builder for the shoulders. A second exercise is the upright rows with a barbell. Stay tuned for more shoulder exercises very soon.

Continuing with the core are 2 more excercises. First would be on a 45 degree roman chair with your body placed sideways lower your torso until you have a strtch on one side then contract that side and lift the torso up. These are called oblique crunches. For the side ab muscles. Swithc side and do the other side as well. The last core exercise is to lay prone on a roman chair and lower your torso until perpendicular to the floor contract the lower back and lgute and hamstring muscles and lift the torso until parallel to the floor. keep the knees slightly bent to take unwanted stress off the lower back. next will be talking about small muscle groups like biceps, triceps, and shoulders.

Continuing with the core there are couple more exercises that will wok the core. Don't forget to work the lower ab muscles as well as the upper. While laying flat on ur back put your hands under the small of your back and poing your legs straight up to the ceiling. Contract the lower abs and shoot the hips off the ground and then come back down clowly and repeat. Do until fatigue sets in. This is a great exercise for the lower abs. Stay tuned for more very soon.
