Boxer Pose

A person who has held a barbell in his hands at least once in his life or simply tried to lift a dumbbell has always thought about what muscles work during the lift. As a Trainer, I can say with confidence that the most popular and effective “hardest working” muscle group is the middle deltoids (middle deltoids). The biggest difficulty in working with the middle delts is performing the exercise correctly - the correct execution technique. So, one of the main mistakes that 99% of people make in the gym when doing the bench press is the inclusion of secondary muscles in the work. Notice the very straight back and dropped shoulders. When you try to bench press more weight, you force yourself to engage the middle of your shoulders. As a result, you develop only the lower middle delts and slightly better results in the bench press (if the technique is under control). To include as many delts as possible, we pull towards the shoulder blades and bring the shoulder blades towards the spine, thereby removing the weight from the middle of the deltoid muscle. So, first of all, for any deltas in almost all exercises, the correct execution of the exercise is important. When under load, try to keep your entire body tense and engage your core muscles. For boxers, it is important to ensure that the shoulders are lowered - the chest is open - creating the desired tilt.
