Holding a T-pose with dumbbells in your hands might just be the most brutal shoulder exercise I've ever done in my life
i dont care what anyone says statics are dumb and i wont do them
>>77487501your gains are mine
>>77487539Fatigue isn't hypertrophy ot strength stimulus.
>>77487544time under tension is all that matters
>>77487544it's a muscle being contracted with resistance, what's the problem?
>>77487544Then are planks useless too?
>>77487501They have a place for tendon recovery and building tendon strength. For the later you need go the limit of the weight you can move.But yea, it doesn't grow muscle at all.
>>77487621>, it doesn't grow muscle at all.That's a lie you know
>>77487606>>77487607>>77487619Idiots. Are isometrics better than concentrics? All 3 of you are no longer allowed to do anything but isometrics, enjoy your zero muscle gains but strong connective tissue.
>>77487697>another /fit/ poster who thinks you're only allowed to train one waylove this board man
>>77487498Seems like a cool new lift broRaising the dumbbells laterally should be in everyone's programme, let's call them lateral raises
>>77487697Failure is failure
>>77487749Yeah bro But you know how these lateral rises are the hardest when your armas are at 90 degrees?What if we held it there for a long time each rep?
>>77487749My shoulders always pop in pain when i bring my arms down in the movement.
>>77487619Less useful than doing a 2-3 sets of heavy loaded crunches and just being done with it
>>77487498My aunt was mean af when we were kids, she would punish us by making us stand with our arms out like that with books in our hands. I grew to like doing it and pissed her demon possessed ass off like crazy. Great exercise.
>>77487647Maybe some minimal growth. But if your goal is muscle growth, anything else works better. I would say even that shit that sends electric pulses to your muscles works better than just isometrics.I do isometrics, but exclusively for tendon strength and recovery.
>>77487498You legit suck and make it easy too much
>>77488158Huh?
That's why lateral rises with pauses is the best of both worlds
>>77487918>crunches>2026lmfao what a scrub
