The Pee-wee lateral
This move is used in a lot of Joyce's routines and I have never felt comfortable with it. Does anyone else feel this way? What do you use as an alternative?
This move just feels awkward to me and if I go too heavy I feel that I could easily injure myself. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?? |
This exercise works the rear delts. A bentover rear delt flye is a good alternative. :)
|
Personally I like this move (and Joyce! :) ), but I never go super heavy. I feel like it has really made my upper back/shoulders stronger.
|
I never do that one. I'm not a personal trainer of PT therapist or anything, but this moves feels awkard and unnatural to me. The few times I have tried the move, it hurt.
Also, as far as I know, Joyce is the only Video Fitness instructor using it. I always substitute another shoulder exercise - front raise - military press. Joyce says in one of her videos that if you can't do a particular exercise - double up on one you can. On BUG she has a section on substitute exercises for moves you don't like. |
Personally, I never do it.
I just do bent over laterals for the rear delts. |
Play "TEQUILA" on your stereo while you're during those parts - that'll help! :D
PS - I don't like them either! Thanks for the good alternate move, Debbie. |
Count me in the "never do 'em" camp.
I substitute some other shoulder move...whatever feels fun at the time. Laura (LCC) |
I wouldn't do this exercise. Perhaps substitute the rear delt raise (i.e. Cathe-style) or rear flye. The 7-minute rotator cuff solution book recommends against many of the shoulder exercises out there and I think this one would fall under the list of no-no's.
