    George Halbert performing a great prehab-rehab delt exercise

    George calls this the "H-Roll". I have just begun incorporating it into my regimen.

    No joke! it kills my rear delts.

    I think he's uses the 65's for the most part. I can only work up to 45's myself

    start light and make sure you raise them above your head like George does in the video and you'll get a nice rear delt burn like none other haha.

    I actually like these better then bent over flyes, seated or standing

    yeah George is super lean!

    I asked him how long he thought he'd be able to stay at 198

    he just smiled and said "as long as I want to"

    okay I need some clarification..


    is it just like a front raise just bent over like that...or do you rotate it out like you would normally do standing rotator cuff exercises?

    well similar to a front raise, but watch how he bends his elbows a little bit at the top half of the movement. you don't want to rotate it out too far otherwise with that momentum you could actually do damage.

    When you're doing them, if you don't feel it in your rear delts, you're probably doing it wrong. When I first asked George about these, I too thought it was a front delt movement, but when I tried them I was shocked that I didn't even feel it in my front delts.

    So I tried these with some light dumbells tonight and I had to stop. I may be doing them wrong but every time I got near the top of the rep my shoulder would get a bad pinching (I have a bad shoulder though, been going to physio for about 2 months to help it). Anyone else have issues with it?

    I do seated db cleans, I think it's basic same exercise. You have work up slow and be careful as stated above not to let momentum over stretch you.
    Remember, to get big, you have to get strong. The two are interconnected. Lift heavy, work hard, and size will come. Like night follows day. It works. Arnold

    Looks like a inclined cuban press, gonna try them as my rotator cuff on the right side is not the greatest.
    Success is achieved by doing a little more than you thought you could, and a lot more than anyone else.

    I too...am going to add these. For me I will be doing them on upper back day. George is someone I have the UTMOST respect for. Meeting him made me nervous to be quite honest. A true world class athlete.

    it looks like a 'prone cuban rotation'
    actually it is.
    It's amazing how some (ME, myself and I) ignore the little things, and in essence those are the things that work and help us tremendously.

    I'll get on the wagon and get after them also.
