What exersizes do you guys do when you want to isolate your rear delts?
interested to hear movements, positions, and any variations like pronating/supernating etc.
want to to change up my shoulder training a little.
i currently to rear delt flyes lying backwards on a 45 bench, then do standing bent over flyes, but thinking of doing some cable work, developing a better mind muscle contraction
I use the bench as well, but 30 degrees. I feel that having the DBs facing you (pinkies out) works better than palms facing each other. It also makes it harder to cheat.
I will also do a rear delt row. Sitting on a bench, bent forward in a rear delt fly position. Start with DBs together, then row out wide so the dumbbells follow the shape of a V.
Reverse Flys
Cables - these hit well, but one cable has to be on top of the other and sometimes the handles collide, so its a little ackward

Do you find that you twist a litle doing that? and maybe doesnt hit as hard cos of it?
I find doing both gives me better balance and I go a bit harder at it (I understand you hold to the frame, but still not the same)
My opinion only.

Like I said in an earlier post I do them on all fours, bring the under the body around the chest area, hits them delts real good. Can't cheat either because your upper body is fixed, can't use momentum.
i think that if you can get your hands up high and close and pull in a downward movement instead of across you'll be safer and get a real stretch and contraction of the deltoid.
Sit down on a bench, bend over close to horizontal, arms slightly bent. Now focus your mind into those little muscles back there and flex them. Use them to row up, keeping the arms bent like a crab. Don't use your back or momentum. Pause at the top and squeeze dafuq out of those little oysters. Pause at the bottom as well.
To do this right, use a very light weight otherwise you will be using your back to move the weight. I have seen built guys using a 2kg dumbbell. If you do it right you might only get in 6-8 reps before those tiny puppies give up, burning like hell.
Optional way to do these is lie on your side with a small plate, 2.5kg is enough, and use your rear delt to bring the weight up from near the floor until your arm is vertical.
Keep it light and really squeeze and hold at the top. Dat burn brah.
Loving reverse cable crossovers
Quite light like above post
Copying bodybuilder strategies is working
A couple of work sets then go lighter and do the Arnold 21s or a variation similar.. Performing that tension set a handful of times. Hnng
All that tension. Sehr gut!!
