Unlock your full potential
The Cross Shoulder Extension is an exercise that primarily targets the rear deltoids and upper back muscles, including the rhomboids and trapezius. Maintaining proper posture during the exercise and avoiding straining the lower back is essential. Therefore, the exercise should be performed with a light to moderate weight load.
Stand upright and grab a barbell or dumbbell with a shoulder-width grip.
Lift the barbell in front of your body to shoulder height, with your arms fully extended and palms facing down.
Hold the barbell at this height, then rotate your arms so that the palms face upwards.
Keep the tension in your shoulders and lower the barbell back to the starting position.
