Shoulder Workout With The Isolator: Lateral Shoulder Raise

 

This exercise can be performed by using either dumbbells and the dumbbell holders or it can be used with the Olympic plate holders and weight plates.  The dumbbell holders and the Olympic plate holders can be attached directly to the forearm ring of The Isolator with the carabiners.  To complete the exercise, bend the arms at the elbows into 90 degree angles and raise the arms up to the height of the shoulders.  Lower the arms back down in order to complete one rep of this shoulder workout.

 

Shoulder Workout With The Isolator: Seated Dumbbell Press

 

Just as with the lateral shoulder raise, this exercise can be performed with either the Olympic plate holders or with the dumbbell holders.  Make sure that the rings from The Isolator are located on the back side of the arm.  Adjust the straps so that when the weights are sitting on the floor and you are sitting on the bench, there is no extra slack in the straps.  Press upward until hands are above the head.  Lower the weight back to starting position to complete one rep of this shoulder workout.

The Isolator is a great tool to use for a shoulder workout, even if you have suffered an injury to the hand, wrist or grip.  Due to the innovative design of this product, there is little strain put on those areas during a workout.  As a direct result, the secondary muscle groups are not going to be working like they would in traditional lifting methods.  This provides a much more isolated and targeted workout than those traditional methods of doing a shoulder workout.
