The shoulder muscles, known as the deltoids, play a crucial role in upper body movements and control the shoulder's range of motion.
They are targeted effectively by combining exercises such as overhead presses and straight arm raises.
These movements ensure comprehensive activation of the shoulder area, providing both strength and mobility benefits.
Adjustments to repetitions and weights should account for individual capabilities and fitness levels, tailored for different physiques and goals.
