Boulder Shoulders Workout - Light Weights

Having massive bicep peaks or killer triceps striations is awesome, but if you don’t have well developed shoulders you’re not getting the visual impact you may think!  This Boulder Shoulders Workout can help you get those “mushroom cap” shoulders in no time!
