8 Essential Shoulder Warm-Up Exercises

How To Warm Up Your Shoulders

Since lateral raises use such low weight, they may appear to be a warm-up in and of themselves. To some extent, this is correct. When you're getting ready for a shoulder workout, light lateral raises might be a good addition to your warm-up routine.

However, this does not negate the need for movement preparation. Make sure you always emphasize safety over ego when training with your shoulders, which are two of the most articulate joints in the body.

Warm up your upper body before working on your delts with these workouts. These movements will help strengthen your shoulders, and you'll be able to lift a lot more weight as a result.
