Recently, Jennifer Dorie, a two-time Bikini Olympia champion, unveiled her routine for toned shoulders on social media. Dorie follows a regimen of four sets for each of the five exercises, starting with the compound movement like the Smith machine shoulder press. She prefers this machine for its stability, safety, and ability to isolate the deltoids more effectively compared to the free-weight overhead press. Following this, Dorie combines isolation exercises using dumbbells and cables, specifically targeting her anterior, lateral, and posterior deltoids. Discover her comprehensive guide to enhancing shoulder strength and aesthetics at the gym in the detailed guide below.

Strengthening this muscle is key for enhancing athletic performance and strength training, as it increases your overall muscle mass, contributing to greater strength gains. However, with the vast array of lower body exercises available, identifying the most effective ones for glute activation can be challenging. We’ve curated a list of the top 15 glute exercises recommended by experts to elevate your next leg day. This selection includes a mix of substantial compound movements targeting the posterior chain, like conventional deadlifts and back squats, alongside isolation exercises specifically designed to target the glutes, such as cable glute kickbacks. Additionally, unilateral exercises like the curtsey lunge and Bulgarian split squat are highlighted for their effectiveness. Our experts provide detailed guidance on the optimal number of sets and reps, necessary equipment, and step-by-step instructions with modifications for each of the 15 exercises, ensuring a comprehensive approach to glute training.
