Well from my point of view, shoulders are the most important muscle part in the upper view of our body. As you all know, shoulders have full rotation of 360 degrees, the shoulders should be broad because broad and thick shoulders looks very impressive and increases your sex appeal too. Men with broad shoulders is also one of the aspect that women finds interesting in men. Broad shoulders makes your body look like V- shaped and you look ultra hot and sexy too when you go out somewhere.
In the following article, I will be discussing about the different exercises for your shoulders, the structure, the anatomy of shoulders. I will also mention my 5 favorite exercises for all beginners that will turn your very thin (baseball bat) shoulders into bowling balls of muscles.

ANATOMY OF SHOULDERS AND DELTOIDS -
1- ANTERIOR HEAD :-
- Function: Flexion, Medial Rotation.
- Location: Front portion of the shoulder girdle.
- Exercise: Barbell Shoulder Press.
2- MIDDLE HEAD :-
- Function: Abduction.
- Location: Middle/Side of the shoulder.
- Exercise: Dumbbell Side Laterals.
3- POSTERIOR HEAD :-
- Function: Extension, Lateral Rotation.

- Exercise: Bent Over Dumbbell Rear Delt Raise With Head On Bench.
Well from the above details mentioned above, you all can understand that your shoulders are made up of 3 different groups of small muscles. Beginners should treat their shoulders like chest in the beginning and should train like- press, press and more presses.
The above video will help all the beginners to achieve their goal of building massive deltoids and shoulders which will help them,to look different from their present.
I would also suggest you all to perform above mentioned exercises in the perfect form because irregular form will lead you to injuries, lower down your progress in the gym and you will gain nothing. I would also state higher reps for beginners and they should also focus on the free weights too like for machines.
