Why are my shoulders getting thicker?

When the shoulders are becoming thicker, it is not easy for people to notice. Only when the shoulders become thicker to a certain extent, people will look in the mirror and find that their shoulders are much thicker than before. If a person's shoulders become thicker, clothes will look much uglier than when their shoulders were weaker. Therefore, thickening of shoulders has a great impact on a person's temperament. So what should we do after our shoulders become thicker?

1. Causes of Thickening Shoulders

Compared with other parts of the body, it is more difficult to lose weight on arms and shoulders because few people exercise their arms in their daily lives. Even if you have a good and slim figure, others may think you are fat because of the fat in your hands and the thickness of your shoulders.

Two ways to slim down your arms

1. Lean forward and raise your arms horizontally to prepare in a standing position. Open your feet to shoulder width, bend your knees slightly, lean your upper body forward 20 degrees, keep your waist and back straight, open both arms outward and backward at the same time, raise your arms to shoulder height or slightly below shoulder height, open them outward as much as possible and hold for 10 seconds, then return to the original position. Repeat this set of movements 10-15 times.

2. Push your arms over your head. Stand naturally, raise your head, chest and abdomen, raise your arms to both sides, bend your elbows, make your forearms and upper arms form right angles, and gradually push them toward the upper and rear of your head. Keep your elbows slightly bent throughout the movement to avoid locking the joints. Perform this set of movements 12-15 times, and do 3 sets in a row.

3. Cross your arms behind your back, open your palms and place them backwards, then swing your wrists while swapping the upper and lower positions. For example, first the right palm is on top and the left palm is on the bottom, then change it to the right palm on the bottom and the left palm on top through swinging, and repeat this 10 times.

4. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart, your upper body straight, your arms raised to the left and right, your arms straight, your palms open outwards, and your fingers pointing up. Use the rotation of your shoulder blades to rotate your arms from front to back 10 times.

5. Similarly, stand with your legs apart, pull your shoulder blades backward and downward, stretch your arms and raise them behind your body, open your palms naturally with your palms facing inward, and the chest is stretched outward by the stretching action of your arms.

6. Use the stimulation of the shoulder blades to swing up and down, slowly pull the back of your hand up as far as possible, hold for a while, put it down slightly, pull it up again, and repeat 5 times.
