Video Transcript

This exercise is called the shoulder back extension so we have got three heads of the shoulder. We have got our anterior deltoid, medial and posterior deltoid so we're going to work the back of our shoulder and we're going to use our water bottles. I've got 20 ounces right here which is equivalent to 1.25 pounds or if you've got canned goods you can use 10 ounce cans or 1 pound cans or whatever you have in your pantry, pull them out so come on up to a standing position and really think about pulling those shoulder blades back and down and you want to put one foot in front of the other, lean forward, and then you're just going to press back and lean with those arms. So you may think that this may seem like a tricep exercise but because we are keeping the elbows straight we've turned it in to a shoulder exercise, the posterior delt and as long as you are really thinking about form and technique, one pound is all you really need to get the job done and you can perform this exercise anywhere between one to two minutes and those posterior deltoids are going to be looking fabulous in those tank tops so that is your back extension with the shoulders.
