Show Off Your Shoulders With These Go-to Exercises From a Beachbody Trainer

Here's a basic yet effective move to target your shoulders.

• Stand with your feet hip distance apart. Hold a dumbbell in each hand so your palms face in toward the sides of your body.
• Start with your right side first. With control, keep your arm straight (but don't lock that elbow), and as you inhale, raise your right hand up toward the ceiling. You want your palm to be facing down and your arm to be parallel to the floor. Then, as you exhale, slowly lower your hand back to your body. You should be able to see your hand in your peripheral vision. Your arm won't be directly out to the side but slightly forward.
• Do the same move with your left arm.
• Then do both your right and left arms at the same time.
• Continue these moves — right, left, together — for a total of two to three sets of 10 reps.

"A wide push-up, hands just outside the shoulders, is a great way to work [your shoulders]," Joel told POPSUGAR.

• Begin in the top of a push-up position with your arms straight and your wrists underneath your shoulders.
• Step each hand a few inches wider.
• As you inhale, bend your elbows out to the sides as you lower your torso toward the floor. Then straighten your arms. This counts as one rep.
• Complete as many reps as you can with proper form.

• Stand with your feet hip distance apart. Hold a dumbbell in each hand so your hands are facing forward with your palms facing your thighs and each dumbbell down in front of your legs.
• Keep your torso straight and lift both arms up, keeping your elbows with a slight bend and your palms always facing down.
• Continue to lift your arms until they are slightly parallel to the floor, about shoulder height.
• Continue this move for a total of three sets of 10 reps.
