In the wide grip position rotate the arms so that the arms are flared out.

Complete 15 reps in the wide grip position and then move to the neutral position. For the neutral position arm exercise simple bring the arms in so that they are parallel to each other rather than creating a wider angle. Complete another 15 reps. Take a 30 second rest then jump right back into these arm exercises. Perform a total of 4 sets and work to failure. The bicep muscle should be completely fatigued, if not then be sure to increase the resistance level.

Only bring the arms to shoulder height in order to properly activate the deltoid. Keep the arms wide and the chest open to get the most shoulder activation out of this workout.

Now, grip the handle close to the wall and pull the resistance band across the chest and maintain a good speed across the plane of the chest.

Perform 8-12 reps for a total of 4 sets. Take 30 second breaks in-betweens sets and remember to work toward muscle fatigue during all of the arm exercises.

External Rotators are the next arm exercise in this workout. Mount the bands again at chest height. Position the body so that the chest is square with the wall.
