Why Your Shoulders Look Flat (Fix With Dumbbells)

[0:00]Your shoulders look flat because you only press, you're building a roof with no walls. Let me fix that. Look, 3D shoulders aren't just one muscle, they're three: front, side, and rear. Miss even one and you're gonna look narrow. First up, the dumbbell press. Punch straight up to the ceiling, and please, don't flare your elbows out like a confused bird. This is what builds that thick front shelf. Second, lateral raises. Go lightweight, high reps. Lift just to shoulder height, not up to your ears. Imagine you're pouring water, not summoning lightning. This is your pure width. Third, rear delt flies. Bend over and drive back, exactly like you're elbowing someone standing right behind you. That is how you build depth. The front gives you height, the side gives you width, and the rear gives you that true 3D look. Miss one and you're right back to building a roof with no walls.
