Shoulder exercises involve dumbbell raises, side lateral raises, and the military press. Chest exercises can include flyes, dips, and the bench press.
Try different variations on these exercises and routines. You need to mix up your routine to avoid a fitness plateau. In order to make gains in fitness, you need to change up your routine. At some point you may consider supplementing to make maximum gains. Here are a few of the basics of supplementation.
