Nicole Wilkins, Figure International Prejudging 2012

I train shoulders once a week & I always begin my shoulder workouts with a pressing movement, either dumbbells or a machine, starting light warm up my shoulders and avoid injuries since the shoulder joint is delicate. When training shoulders you need to hit all 3 heads of the deltoid muscle, the front, side and rear delts all of which need individual attention to get that over-all fullness & roundness that you want with. As always, make each rep count, slowly increasing your weights with each workout and going slow on the negitive.

  1. Shoulder Press- I prefer to use dumbbells when doing this exercise, but cables or machines can sometimes be a good substitution or change.
  2. Side lateral raises- To hit the side delts, my favorite is side lateral raises with dumbbells but this exercise can also be done using a low cable pulley. I lift as heavy as I can while maintaining good form throughout the movement.
  3. Dumb-bell Front raise- You can also use a plate to vary this movement or for efficiency and a change of super set it up with lateral raises.
  4. Bent lateral raises- Keep this movement slow and controlled, Remember to hold the peak contraction for a second at the top before returning to the start position.
    Another shoulder exercises I sometimes do for shoulders is close grip up right row.

Training Shoulders with IFBB Figure Pro Raechelle Chase

Shoulders are her favorite body part to train, and for good reason: Nicole Wilkins has shoulders most guys envy!

While rocking to Rihanna, Nicole has sculpted a winning body. Literally. She's scored a number of first place wins in IFBB Figure competitions, including the 2011 Arnold Classic, Tournament of Champions, Olympia, and Sheru Classic. She recently stormed the 2012 Arnold Classic, racking up another first at that venerable competition.

One doesn't get a rap sheet that impressive by training like a princess. Nicole lives a disciplined lifestyle and trains like a champion. Even if you aren't planning to sport your stuff onstage, Nicole's shoulder workout is an effective way to get that rounded, tapered, sexy look.
