I've spent the last year diving into the science of training but nothing shocked me more than a cadaver case study that revealed to me the true anatomy of your deltoid muscles. Turns out big boulder shoulders are mostly comprised of the anterior and posterior head, the lateral head is quite small in comparison. In this video, I rank some of my favorite exercises but also give the science behind why they are more effective than some of the more popular but less effective ones that most people do.

You're one of my favourite CZcamsrs Ryan. Please don't touch any kids 😊.
😂 I'm sure he loathes them
Wild that this is now a normal request
Do NOT go Beast Mode!!!!
How is the hair doing steam cells wish?
😂😂😂
The S tier cable setup = my first actual rear delt pump. I’ve been bodybuilding and powerlifting for 12 years. Thank you for unfucking my life.
Tried doing facepulls while sitting down
0:38 "this piece of shit"
*Shows a picture of what I wish I had* 😭
Ectomorphs, assemble
Fr
Thought the same
Right
Right 😅
never apologize for spreading S tier knowledge, you’re appreciated.
@11:00: "but if it's something you're interested in and you like it then we could do the side delt and front delt variation and continue this". Yes please!
yup
Yes please!
Yes pls
yes please more of the goodness
Yes....but also, make the jokes too.
Hey Ryan, this series is absolute gold, mate! It helps people tailor their programs by replacing exercises. Just yesterday, I did your S-tier rear delt cable pull and I can barely fucking type, mate. Please continue this, you've no idea how valuable it is to so many people. Cheers!!
Ryan was so good at growing his delts that he grew some on his head! Bet I'm listening to what he has to say.
This is true, as one gets older your brain grows more. There fore your head must get stronger to facilitate a larger brain.
don't get me wrong. Ryan knows his stuff. No doubt.
But as many other large real natty fitnes-tuber said. Listening to someone who is on gear can be missleading sometimes. Bc what works for them, doesn't work for natty bodybuilders or your avarage Joe.
He shows real studys, tests them on hits own and even make own assumptions based on facts. Nice! The only downside is, that somebody on gear could pick up a big rock everyday and he will get bigger shoulders (or any other muscel). You (by that I mean every natty) this doesn't work. Even if you follow his guides, you won't ever reach a freaction of what he has.
Just my opinion. Working out for 15 years now, saw a lot of people, bothe on/off and without any gear.
What I am trying to say is, that one should different how and by whom they get information.
Have a great day :)
😂😂
@@IfUanswerMeUareGae I’d partly agree to the point that intensity of workouts, and frequency too, of gearheads is incomparable for us nattys and straight up counterproductive. As far as technique and exercise selection goes, we should pay close attention to what they say and do. Cheers
@@LDacic idk him but seeing a roided guy point at decent shoulder genes that are built quite well and call it “this piece of shit” then show roided delts and say this video is how he grew them doesn’t exactly give a good impression at all
10:33 best rear delt exercise
Amen
They take too long to get to the dammmm point 👉
Amen brother
bless you... this was brutal
10 fucking minutes 😮
Stem cell people: "Hey man, can you blow your knee out this week?" Ryan:" I got you"
I bought your 30 gym program and so far I love it! Today was the first day doing it and my arms have never been so tired. Great content thanks!
Let's have the anterior and medial heads next
There's no such thing as the medial head of the delt
@overlord3481 except it's literally what the lateral or middle deltoid is
@@buck8266 The initial premise of the video makes no sense, big sholders are exactly big lateral delts, he goes on to show the many subregions that make up the delt and the one in the middle is obviously very small if you split the whole muscle into 20 parts, this small part of the muscle is not lifting all the weight during shoulder abduction and you would obviously have the last and the first parts of the anterior and posterior delts contrubute since thier fibres orientation obvously aligns well with the movement. You don't get wilde by trianing rear delts just because the academics define them as 10 times bigger than the middle head and so let's spam rear delts
@@AleksandarBanov-tm9ql you dont get "wider" at all doing shoulder exercises. if you are exercising correctly, you are gaining in volume everywhere equally. if you are narrow, its because of a narrow bone structure, and no amount of training will change that. you will proportionally always look the same, no matter how much muscle you gain.
Hey Ryan, i dont know where i heard this, was a yt video ages ago.
A high lvl strongman was training a bodybuilder on yoke and farmers handles and the like.
One of the simplest biggest ques the strongman gave the bodybuilder was to allways look forward and never tip your chin down onto your chest/look down as it causes the traps to disengage for a large amount, and you need those to work on yoke and farmers.
Whenever i do rear delt movements and certain side lateral movements i have been tipping my chin down onto my chest and i felt a big difference in targeting my rear delts/delts on machine and dumbel work.
Definetly not as masive as you or others are but i do feel a better pump and easier activation on my delts doing that little thing.
Please continue this series and take us deeper into the weeds!

I love these specific videos diving deep into specific parts of a muscle group, breaking shoulders into each " head" ect, and breaking down the exercises that really target which part. Keep 'm coming please!!!!
Thank you for your insightful comments, Ryan. Because of you THIS grandma looks better than anybody half her age in the whole family. Keep'em coming, the programs. I'm still struggling with the app, but other than that I've enjoyed every single program you've released, and I keep hoping for more. And I can always do a printout, like I used to. ❤❤❤
That misaligned black wall behind you has been testing my OCD for a better part of a year now.
@@HowAboutThat224 it's not about perfectionism either. that gap in that boarding in the wall is just a lame carpentry job.
I don't have OCD, but I get triggered by it, because it's so shitty.
And I too would have joked about "my OCD getting triggered", facetiously 😉
He made a joke guys
Nobody gives a crap who's right between you guys.. relax
@@HowAboutThat224bro shut up😂
@@valentemedina5102 Trump going to deport your azz
@@HowAboutThat224 How is it not OCD? The utter need for things to be straight and aligned, to the point that it gives you anxiety when they're not.. That's a part of compulsive obsession. When it physically alters your being and state of mind when it is not right to you, that you need to fix it or want someone to fix it. That is not obsessive compulsion?
"OCD episodes can manifest differently from person to person. Some common themes of an OCD episode include fear of contamination, checking behaviors, ***obsession over symmetry and order***,"
One thing to add is I’ve found that single arm cable crossovers are amazing but work just as well doing them purely horizontal
He climbed a rickety dodgy ladder and sit down just to talk to us. I LOVE IT! Best channel on CZcams. Keep it COMING SIR
That a pretty solid rolling scaffold bud. Metaltech, probably about 1k depending on the model. Some of the best out there.
@@StayinBud ok
YOUR PASSION FOR TRADING IS CONTAGIOUS! WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS MAKES ME EXCITED TO DIVE DEEPER INTO THE WORLD OF TRADING.
I don't lift weights but Ryan is my favorite. I get vicarious gains just watching him.
Btw that data you posted like last year, showing that the rear delt doesn't really fire off without the lateral.... Changed my training completely. Two birds with one stone. Thanks Ryan!
I would absolutely love to see this breakdown on the Anterior Delta. I so enjoy these videos and they are extremely helpful.
I’m a natty lifter…I don’t give a shit what you’ve done to get there. I appreciate your teachings and I lift the way you think and it’s working! I need more!!!
Ohhh man, this is my favorite episode....i love work out deltoids, easy relax muscle work out with big results, now you can tap my back.
that's crazy! i figured out the exercise at 10:33 by just using light weight cables in different angles until i felt a good stretch and contraction. Sometimes i will slightly turn and face my palm up at the top stretch position. 100% best exercise. Then i do the rear delt on the incline bench. such good activation!!
I don't even lift (bro), and I love this channel. Ryan needs a TV show.
Ryan I want to sincerely thank you man! Ive been watching your videos for years and nobody else keeps me engaged and pumped to learn more than you and your lessons actually produce phenomenal results. Plus youre funny as hell! Dont ever stop man! Really, Thank you!!!
You had me at "scapulae, in case you're an asshole." Lol
00:17 side profile looking small, do you even get off couch bro?
Lmao
Had left wrist carpal tunnel and right arm tennis elbow all last summer. It’s actually a year tomorrow that I used BPC and TB shots right into the injury for 2 weeks twice a day. Totally healed and back into the gym. Those peptides used accurately are no joke. If you’re eating them or nasal spray.
Where do you go to get stem cells? I'm trying to recover from foot surgery and it's going to take a long time.
Are they as effective if you eat/have them in pill form instead of shots?
Injection trumps both
Did you inject sub q or below myofascial? How long did you cycle and what volume? Thanks!
You explain things in a way that really put the movements together for me.
Love your stuff.
I honestly like it a lot. I wish you do the same for the other deltoid parts
I loved this video. I don’t need all of the in depth verbal terminology, but it was intriguing and I found it interesting. Thanks for at least showing us the blurred image. I was nervous for an an anticlimactic cliffhanger there.
I am 54 years old and back in the gym for about 2 years….since finding your channel I am seeing gains I haven’t seen in 25 years….thank you…that’s it….dont make a big deal out of it….
He won't he don't reply to anyone
I adopted the exercises you suggested for front and lateral delts. Game changer. Thank you.
Whats your cycle ?
A lot of things but tren
I believe in the past he stated just testosterone
A herculees speedster
He probably just does like test and EQ
Moderate low dosages
@@Rickkhry😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
2:47 “wooooo” 🤣 killed me
Please make an anterior delt video as well! These are the best!
Oh yes please continue with your amazing science I freaking love this
HOLY CRAP! New 30 min for my sucky garage weights! SOLD!
200% needed this. Last couple of months I've lost all connection to rear delts. I'll be trying these today!!
I think we know how Ryan grew his delts...
If you think he wasn’t already on the sauce in the before picture you’re trippin!
@@Zooterman If you think the before picture doesn't count as boulder shoulders, you're trippin!
Still has to properly train them.
Low iq detected😂😂😂
Steroids and ped's still require you to work out.
They just make you actually grow and develop, whereas nattys CAN'T GROW!
8 years in the gym it took me to look decent in the past,now I've decided to take ped's AND IM ALREADY BIGGER BEEN 2 MONTHS AND I'M DYING OF CANCER AND ON CHEMOTHERAPY!
Gear still needs exercise, but it makes all the difference in the world
We absolutely need the video for middle and front delt!!!
Ryan, I didn't think I hated myself enough to finish your 30min workout (gym version) after day 4. Come to find out, I do. I have made it to week 4 day 3.😂😂😂
Do you recommend the program, how is it coming?
That shot of you doing the single leg calf raise scared me straight, lol. Def gonna be paying more attention on the leg press tomorrow.😱
Been doing a version of the rear delt raise for a while. Bent over with dumbbells and not an ez bar. Never felt my rear delts as connected with anything else.
More Videos like this! I love hearing about the science behind your suggestions!
Muscle Combat series for every muscle group would be amazing … and if you don’t want to make it, I’ll personally flex my way over and make you! 😅😂🤣
Great video. The science, the shots, the narration, seeing you do it yourself on the spot and even pictures of the muscle and rhe bones. Ifs great
I thought you did stem cells therapy for your hair loss and that it was amazing ? You even promoted it
:o an influencer that promotes stuff that isn't necessarily good! o:
This is the first video of yours I've ever seen, and you going so far into actual studies and hard scientific details is just...sploosh. Subbed.
9:58 did he just call Dr. Mike stupid? Lol
100%
Because he is lol
@@daniell5751 you rather listen to this guy than a PhD? Ok
@@fabiansandoval6132 who lives off silly controversies, and who never got a good shape by taking a truckload of gears and admitting to being dependent on them? well, then, without a doubt, I prefer to believe in the other guy, especially because the PhD scholarships out there barely seem to lift LMAO
We're talking about Dr. Mike. He deff works out @daniell5751
I have taken your tips on shoulder workouts over your many videos and now my shoulders are making good progress, especially front and rear! Great advice 🎉
No clue why CZcams recommended this for me (as a new content creator myself the algo is a mystery to me 😅) but boy am I glad it did. I just got back into lifting again about 2 weeks ago and these videos are right up my alley. Thank you very much.
The algorithm knows you're lifting bro.. it can hear you grunting during your pumps.
@@detBits haha true
Fantastic video, bro! I love how in-depth you go. You have literally changed my life!
I've taken so much advice from you and it's resulted in amazing gains! Please keep doing what you're doing.....and yes! More of this series with the front and lateral delt!
I, personally would like to see a little bit more on the anatomy side of things, specifically where specific muscles attach to and what motion it creates
im confused, so when exactly do i start injecting roids?
never.
Say that to a fitness influencer
@@BeverageOfSorts some people are oblivious to how rampant steroid usage is in this industry. what's sad is that there are people that take roids and nuke their entire health just to be built like a tank and work as a waiter.
10 years ago
@@TudorNeculaI'd love to be a buff waiter though
I almost didn't trust a fellow Ryan. Then I tried his top choice for shoulder bulk. It's amazing. Thanks Ryan (#2)
3:23 bro, I didn't evn said sh't.
Lowkey this channel for me became the best fitness content there is, wow.
@@adir1598 s da fu with your lowkey
Do more of this
Pro-tip: move all gluteal injections to lateral deltoid heads to increase deltoid volume. Always worked for me 🤙🏼
Just tren harder bro🙃
Having popped a inner thigh muscle I can't emphasize how well his response to hurting it was... That pop is a horrible feeling I never wish to have happen again
10:20 I started doing this, rather than the arms parallel to floor variation that I’ve always done. I can’t keep a fully straight arm because it felt like my triceps tendons were gonna tear from my shoulder. Can’t wait to see the results.
Backed shortcut to boulder shoulders - testo😂
I'm currently going through a licenciature of physical therapy and kinesiology and finally have some knowledge to understand how amazing this video was, loving this Ryan, do all this shit I love.
I KNEW I WASN'T CRAZY. I'm training my back delts exclusively with my arm stretched and shoulders depressed, pulling down. Like you show in the video. My gymbro keeps insisting that I'm training all lats. I instantly shared this video.
Just came across your channel and I've gotta say I'm loving the content. As an over-thinker, the analytical and scientific approach you take resonates well with how I tend to design my own workouts. Keep up the good work!
@Ryan I noticed at 9:03 while doing the pullovers, you weren't working at an optimal tempo to stimulate hypertrophic results proportional to your efforts. This has me concerned for your cognitive abilities. I recommend you check the back of your skull for another one of those dents. I love you Egg.
Idk how I earth I’ve never discovered your videos till now and I’m laughing so hard while leaning all the new things. appreciate this video
Great information. Thanks for taking the time to explain how/why
Awesome techniques and form for delts!
Nuff thanks and respect to
Ryan H. for this educating video!
This could of been way shorter like "just use steroids" .
Please do the rest of the delts. This was one of your best videos. As someone who has always struggled with building delts I would love to learn more.
Roids help
I consistently find myself watching your videos, even though I haven’t steadily worked out in about 10 years. But if and when I decide to, I am equipped with the knowledge you have given me lol. Great videos keep them coming!
*Larry Burkett's book on "Giving and Tithing" drew me closer to God and helped my spirituality. 2020 was a year I literally lived it. I cashed in my life savings and gave it all away. My total giving amounted to 40,000 dollars. Everyone thought I was delusional. Today, 1 receive 85,000 dollars every two months. I have a property in Calabasas, CA, and travel a lot. God has promoted me more than once and opened doors for me to live beyond my dreams. God kept to his promises to and for me*
There's wonder working power in following Kingdom principles on giving and tithing. Hallelujah!
But then, how do you get all that in that period of time? What is it you do please, mind sharing?
It is the digital market. That's been the secret to this wealth transfer. A lot of folks in the US and abroad are getting so much from it, God has been good to my household Thank you Jesus
And thanks to my co-worker (Michael) who suggested Ms Susan Jane Christy
How can I start this digital market, any guidelines and how can I reach out to her?
please make a part 2, this video was a banger
Big wide boulder shoulder can easily be attained via steroids
You just can’t develop big huge basketball shoulders without
you know genetics exist right?
@@n2lz873 yes, but true boulder shoulders don’t exist naturally.. big shoulders? Yeah course.. I’ve got a afew pals with pretty hefty frames and decent size shoulders.
But true boulder shoulders as seen in most of this sort of content is straight up down to steroids
And this is no hate post, love this channel and its content! Gets me hyped up for the gym myself but it gets pretty boring when next to all creators will list out a load of exercises that will GUARANTEE MASSIVE HUGE MONSTER GAINZ
But should really take the time to atleast tell the naive watchers from time to time that steroids play a massive part in it all.
Got kids growing up these days thinking this size is the norm and easily achievable by just doing certain lifts
agree 100%
You pencil necks are hilarious and….pathetic
Hey dude, not being an asshole at all but now that you’re getting all this knowledge and your experimenting the original 30 day gym and all that can you update it and make it better with the knowledge that you gained and by the way thank you for the workouts man it’s so difficult, but I love it. I feel so accomplished every time I leave the gym
Now I get it. Being brand new 1st week on garage Swole program. The shoulder day was awesome but burned like hell. Like I never trained my shoulders…..ever!!!!
Awesome video. Been working out for 17 years and I’m still learning.
I happened upon the right answers through trial and error.
Thank you for confirming what I felt was successful and worthwhile.
Please continue with shoulders. They are the foundation for EVERYTHING ELSE. Weak shoulders jeopardize success for every other exercise!
You are the best brother! Sooo much value I can’t wait to try this tomorrow
Dude is not lying about the last exercise. I just did it and Jesus I can actually feel my rear delta fire. Thanks
You're literally so funny and helpful.
Everything you said makes sense to me as to why i struggle with rear delts thank you please do more videos like this video ive been look for an explanation for ages 👍 i have subscribed
As a PhD biochemist/molecular cell biologist AND one who uses your app for working out, I properly appreciate this type of research! Legit!
The one and only exercise he put into F is my favorite and my rear delts are insane lol.
Excellent anterior delts video! Better than the legs; which itself was amazing (I used & it worked; angled hack smith is "S" tier). Looking forward to the posterior deltoid videos.
Good luck on your injury from one person who can totally relate. Took me longer to heal, because I'm old lol.
I tried hitting my calves hard and heavy 3x/wk and I got plantar fascitis from it! I love to hike and for 2 months, 1 mile was all I could manage. It still flares up after over a yr, from time to time, but wearing a foot compression sleeve means 6-8 mile hill hikes aren't a problem.
Thanks for disclosing my delt workout to everyone, as a bonus try the bent over dumbell row in a slightly higher position.
Humiston vs Wolf continues in fine fashion. Do the rest of the delts please.
Hell yea more science, ill be able to destroy my opponents with facts and knowledge.
YES on the side & front delt variations!
Hell yeah, please full delt work! My boulders be like pebbles
I noticed a huge difference during cable pullover is to sit on my knees an lean forward, I could feel my lats stretch a lot more.
