Shoulder Training with Jim Cordova

This video covers my basic approach to shoulder training.

[@PROTEUS_SEER-OF-EONS]

Cant tell whats more impressive, his gainz or his impeccable articulation.

[@silentsmilez503]

It was a rather exceptional presentation

[@forzaprashant]

Everything he says about rotator cuff is pure gold

This guy knows what he's talking about.

[@gonderAmh]

[@tbreedphoto]

One of the most informative videos on youtube. I've taken so many tips and variables from this single video that has transformed how I and the people I work with train. I wish Jim would do more videos, one of the best physiques on the modern era IMO!

[@souldyer]

Now this is a bodybuilding scientist i can listen to and trust!! the best advice ive heard for a shoulder work out he broke down every bit of info that i need for my shoulders to grow i cant wait to go to the gym!!

[@OGAesthetics]

Damn this motivated me back in the day!!

[@JQuintero189]

This is a perfect example of a great bodybuilder.

[@117Hubby]

This guy has incredible shoulders

[@Elementwwf123]

Took his advice today and got the best pump in my shoulders. Thank you

[@williamdemey1657]

Really wish Jim would post more video's like this one. His tips and explanation's are the best in the business. His form is a guide to anyone looking to maximize muscle gain while minimizing risk of injury.

[@isaacmorales7630]

That single arm upright row is pure golden. I've been trying it for a couple months and the results and sensations it delivers are completely unique, its a totally different type of contraction than that of the lateral raises provide. I think it might be because it allows for the side deltoid to be fully shortened with heavier loads as it behaves more as a compound lift for the side deltoid. Anyway great video and impeccable lifting technique by this guy.

[@immune18]

Do you still do this mate? I did it today and it’s unreal.. got a huge side delt pump with it using 18kg got 10 reps out of it

[@fahadhum]

What a motivation ..Seeing this guy FLEX is giving me an adrenaline rush :) Man his physique is just brilliant ...

[@DaynJo]

Superb video, Thank you Sir. This give training tips I personally have not seen on any other youtube vid. I love the single arm upright row. I use my cable crossover pulley for this. Made a *real* difference to my delt training. Kudos.

[@mikekielczewski3500]

I learned more in your five minute video than rest of all the other shoulder routines I watched put together. Nobody talkes about the rotator cuff. Which is big for older guys like me. Thanks so much.

[@sixstring4]

Words of inspiration, awesome tips & moves I've now incorporated in my shoulder workouts..you beginners, learn from this dude, you'll save time and build muscle safely!

[@BeemerSteamer]

Whats the name of the song in the beginning? Must have it on my workout playlist!

[@tommyvette969]

yea im 61 and still improving

[@hanihabbal6922]

This guy works out with intelligence. Those are some beastly shoulders. I've injured my left shoulder in the past, think I'll throw some rotator cuff exercises into my routine. Thanks Jim

[@tptrsn]

This is a FANTASTIC VIDEO! Thanks Jim! I used some of these methods tonight and they were very helpful. Thanks for being so honest and not using misleading heavy weights when you are making your videos.

[@Skawrr]

Didn't expect his voice to be like that when I turned the volume up...LOL

Jim is one of the best natural bodybuilders

[@noneofyourbusiness910]

+kai greene Who gives a crap what nattyornot says. According to that website, Justin Bieber is the epitome of natural bodybuilding.

[@fredericksecq4445]

Zachary Wheeler You are still very naive if you think he is natural.

[@dwayneraimer]

OMG. I love this guy! One of the only workouts I have tried for shoulders that truely works to the fullest, especially using the rotator cuff stuff included. I gave this workout 12 honest weeks and kept changing it up using his exercises his way and my shoulders in 12 weeks have almost doubled in size and I havn't gained a single pound or had to change my diet at all. I'm 165 lbs and started off pressing 60lb dumbells and now I am pressing 75's for 5 sets of 10-12 reps with no spot and full range of motion. I still can't believe it, but if your smart I would suck it up and do exactly what this guy tells you to do for results without roids or a whole lot of diet changing

[@demonicon1]

Smart smart man, some of the best advice I've ever heard on shoulders

[@CranberryMuffinmanz]

Rotator Cuff exercises added to shoulder day!

[@Hersovyac]

I found that if your shoulders can handle it, doing high volume dumbell OHP or BTN press build a lot of rotatur cuff strength and endurance (and size of course). Just a 2 cens

[@BorderlineDestroyer]

I will be glad, if you information me. Which ones rotator cuff exercises ?

[@BL8DRUNN3R]

Lol, this guy seems like a completely different person in the workout part than in the talking part.

[@dantean]

No he doesn't. I'm not telling you he's not on gear, only that he looks in the talking parts EXACTLY like a guy as big as the one we're seeing in the workout parts. What're YOU looking at?

[@River_YT]

Sublime Music Channel If you weren't completely oblivious you could notice that he's talking about he looks like a BEAST, and when it comes to the talking he seems like a semi-meek soft-voiced person.

[@edwardrodriguez3529]

Seems very knowledgeable

[@ykx777]

@@dantean he's definitely on gear, you cannot get shoulders like that without it

[@flexforall2]

@@ykx777 YOU cannot. He can/has.

[@thefutureisnow3617]

Great Video workout man. No BS whatsoever! The Basic work out are the BEST

[@LuisGonzalez-xt4ln]

You have the best shoulders I've ever seen. Really motivated me to strengthen my shoulders and I've added one arm upright rows and the rear delt bent over rows to my training ever since. Thanks again and I will definitely be adding the rotator cuff training very soon

[@trevorbaugh1335]

Keyboard warriors like to call anyone more muscular than them "on steroids," like it means how fit the dude is is immediately made irrelevant. Yes, there is a 99% this guy takes steroids, but that doesn't mean it's easy to look like this. Don't kid yourself, he had to work his ass off to get to this level.

[@bloodandguts9007]

Trevor B. You're not any better since you mentioned steroids yourself. Just don't care about what jealous losers say.

[@trevorbaugh1335]

Blood And Guts I honestly do not understand your accusation. I mentioned steroids because it is widely mentioned all over the comment section, or it least it was when I typed my original statement roughly a year ago.

[@Desihongkonger]

Does anyone knows, why he is Gone from Internet

[@alm100]

This is one of a best training videos I have seen. Thanks

[@ahmadshahid9121]

Thanks Jim this is one of the best exercise i ever experience well done

[@cooldesiguy007]

He is on roids, but irrespective of it you have to work out hard and these were some great tips

[@caesarguzman5831]

Naah, he's not that big, just completely shreadded.

[@victorliebtolde5676]

***** 100% roids

[@caesarguzman5831]

I think he's natural; when he has a t shirt and jeans on, he barely looks like he even trains...

[@victorliebtolde5676]

Nubsack Korean Just cause he lifts for 20 years doesn´t mean his Physique is attainable natural..., i think it´s safe to say : roids !

[@caesarguzman5831]

WahdicalWeftist damn dude you don't have to curse me out! Don't these guys have to pass lie detector tests? How do they get around that?

[@SnuffDizz]

he talks like a machine, also lifts like with laser like focus, my money says he is natural

Ignorance is bliss.

This dude is something else. He gave some great info and those shoulders look like the healthiest ive ever seen.

[@lofficer11]

Probably one of the best shoulder vids. Not sure I have every seen a shoulder vid on youtube that went over the rotator cuff. I now do those rot cuff exercises as a warm up to my shoulder routine.

thank you for the tips! I will watch all your video and adapt my trainning.

[@Kasenkow]

That was very useful tips for shoulder workouts. Thank you Jim Cordova

[@sixstring4]

Great tips Jim!..everything you mentioned makes perfect sense. I try those single rows you do..thx for the inspiration

[@TheClayCat]

His tips on exercising the rotator cuff muscles is very valid. Equally valid is the advice to work the short hip external rotators (SHER) muscles - now often referred to as the "hip cuff" for the same reason. As a sports physician, primary prevention is certainly preferable for any athlete than secondary prevention!

[@dominicsimon8682]

best set of shoulders I have seen in a long time

[@KnottyByNature1]

Great instruction! Especially about the rotator cuff exercises. I don't compromise form for any shoulder workout for fear of injury. I'll have to include the rotator cuff exercises now.
