This is how you should interpret my tier list: All exercises are ranked based on muscle building potential. S tier - My favorite. Do them if you can. A tier - Strongly recommend. B tier - I still do these in certain contexts. There may be better options. C tier - There are better options for most people. Can still have value in some contexts. D tier - Probably not a great option for most people. F tier - Generally not recommended. ------------------------------- Timestamps: 0:00 - What makes an exercise great? 1:40 - Standing Dumbbell Lateral Raise 2:43 - Lean-In Dumbbell Lateral Raise 2:58 - Lean-Away Dumbbell Lateral Raise 3:13 - Super ROM Lateral Raise 3:50 - Overhead Press 5:11 - Seated Overhead Press 5:25 - Dumbbell Overhead Press 5:49 - Machine Shoulder Press 6:22 - ‘Arnold Style’ Side Lying Dumbbell Raise 6:45 - Front Raises 7:06 - Atlantis Standing Machine Lateral Raise 7:38 - Seated Machine Lateral Raise 7:57 - Cable Lateral Raise 8:53 - Cable Y-Raise 9:06 - Behind-The-Back Cuffed Lateral Raise 9:37 - Banded Lateral Raise 9:55 - Upright Row 10:26 - Reverse Pec Deck 11:01 - Rope Facepull 11:36 - Bent Over Reverse Dumbbell Flye 11:58 - Reverse Cable Crossover ------------------------------- References: References: Lateral Delt vs Rotator Cuff During Lateral Raise https://www.researchgate.net/publication/369759056 Long Muscle Length Research https://www.researchgate.net/publication/381508497 EMG Activity of Anterior Delt During Overhead Press https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23096062/ ------------------------------- Written by Jeff Nippard Filmed by Matt Dziadecki (https://www.instagram.com/dziadecki/) Edited by Rickie Ho & Jeff Nippard (https://twitter.com/coldgamerick) Music Arranged by Editor Musket (https://www.youtube.com/@TheEditorJosh) Music sourced from Epidemic Sound ------------------------------- About me: I'm a Canadian natural pro bodybuilder and internationally-qualified powerlifter with a BSc in biochemistry/chemistry and a passion for science.
