The internet is rife with tons of workout videos which makes it extremely difficult to differentiate between misinformation and actual science. But there is one name that can always be relied on for workout tips at the end of the day. 4X Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler has been into fitness for more than 3 decades now.

As part of his ‘Fit for 50’ challenge, Cutler is posting regular physique updates as well as tips and advice related to muscle hypertrophy as well as nutrition on his social media. Quite recently, he posted another video on his TikTok in which he provided a list of the top 3 shoulder exercises that helped him attain capped shoulders. Let’s go through the best shoulder exercises of the ‘Comeback Kid.’

How to get boulder shoulders like Jay Cutler??

Jay Cutler started the video by stating that he had “some of the biggest delts in bodybuilding when I was at my reign for Mr. Olympia.” Diving straight into the list, he started by talking about the first movement in the list which was the rear cable crossover. The rear cable crossover is an exercise that primarily targets the rear deltoids. It also engages the upper back muscles which makes it an essential muscle group to train. A bodybuilder with weak rear deltoids will automatically appear to have a poorly-developed back as well.?

Continuing further, Cutler said, “I also did the bent over lateral movement which was very great for developing the shoulders.”?Bent-over lateral raises are a variation of lateral raises that primarily targets the rear deltoids as well. Cutler’s preferred exercises for shoulder workouts clearly hinted at the importance one should pay to rear deltoids.?

Concluding the list in the video, Cutler pointed out “the most important which is the seated side lateral raise which will give you that huge cap in the delts.” Side raises, as the name suggests, are a popular exercise for targeting the side (medial) deltoids and building broader shoulders. Cutler jokingly ended the video by saying, “You guys want to walk around and go sideways through doors, make sure you do these three movements.”

Which is the worst shoulder exercise according to Cutler?

Bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger gave birth to an ingenious shoulder exercise that is said to target all three heads of deltoids. But contrary to popular belief, Cutler believes that exercise is not that effective. In a recently shared YouTube Short on his channel, Cutler mentioned that he does not prefer to include this variation of shoulder press in his workout.

?That exercise never really did anything in my routine for me,? said Cutler. ?I kind of have my own standard, you know, dumbbell or barbell press, machine press?? added the veteran bodybuilder.?
