Please STOP Doing Upright Rows

Possibly my favorite dumbbell shoulder exercise of all time is the dumbbell high pull. This exercise not only targets the middle and rear delts, but also promotes external rotation of the shoulder joint. • I like to call this exercise the anti-upright row. Now, that exercise I do not like at all. That’s because the mechanics of the upright row force your shoulders into internal rotation with elevation. That’s a recipe for disaster in the form of impingement. • Unlike the upright row, the high pull calls for your hands to be above your elbows at the top of the rep. The upright row forces your elbows above your hands, which again, leads to internal rotation. • While you may be doing upright rows without pain right now, why not swap it for the dumbbell high pull which targets the same muscles and removes the risk of injury? • If you want to build bigger side and rear delts, then don’t overlook this exercise and start including it in your routine! • For more tips on building muscle, be sure to stay tuned to this channel and remember to subscribe so you never miss another video from a physical therapist with a pro sports background as a PT and strength coach. • You can subscribe to this channel here - http://bit.ly/2b0coMW • Get Your Workout Meal Plan: • 📝 https://www.athleanx.com • Connect With Me: • 👉 / athleanx • For complete step-by-step workout programs, head on over to athleanx.com and make sure to use the program selector to find the training plan that is best suited to your personal goals. • Jeff Cavaliere MSPT, CSCS served as both the head physical therapist and assistant strength coach for the New York Mets.
