A short, instructor-led YouTube shoulder workout by Natalie Jill designed to build defined, swimsuit-ready shoulders using only body weight. The session progresses from standing warm-up (fist lifts and small overhead raises) into dynamic "swimming" shoulder motions, pivot/rotation (windshield-wiper/cheerleader) movements, a brief cross-body stretch, and a pike/V-style push-up to intensify shoulder load. The video emphasizes that no equipment is needed, cues core engagement and breathing, suggests repeating the routine several times per week, and finishes with a plug for the instructor's 7 Day Jumpstart program and book.

Hey, guys. Welcome back to Happy, Healthy and Fit. Today we're doing a sexy shoulder swimwear workout. Because we don't gotta look cool in our swimwear for the summer with our shoulders, right? And the cool thing about defined shoulders is, guess what it does. It makes our waist look smaller. And that's what we all want, right? So that's what we're gonna do today. Are you ready?
So here's the cool thing. We're gonna do these all with our own body weight. So you can do them anywhere, no excuses. You can do them at home. You do them with me right now and we're going to start. They're going to get go easier to harder, but they're all going to work you out. So the first thing we're doing, we're going to start just standing straight up, stomach in, abs tight. And I want you to make some fists. And I want you to imagine you're holding some weight and you're going to lift it up and down. Just a slow movement. Now, you don't want to just go through the motions. I want you to act like you're really lifting some heavy weight there. Because I'm also a fan of weights for sure. But you don't need them. You can use your own body weight. You can flex, you can make that muscle. You can work it while you're lifting up and down. So take it up and down. Watch. You should feel it. You'll feel it right here and you can actually see it up and down. Keep it going. Breathe through it. Make them hard, you guys. Make them work up. Nice job. We're just warming it up. Just warming it up. Take it up. Give me three more just like this.
Now to hold them up here. Hold them up. Don't drop them. Put your arms out straight. And I've got little movements up and down. Just right here. Little up and down. They will start to burn. And see, this is what I wanted you to see, that it doesn't take any weight. You're going to feel them right here. Up and down movements, little feel them. Keep going. Good job, you guys. Come on, breathe through it. Few more.
Now hold. Just freeze, freeze, freeze, freeze. Hold them here. Distract yourself with your feet if you need to. Okay, we're going to bring them in front right here. And we're going to go swimming. Watch me here. We're going to go like this. Swim. Are you ready? Take it swimming out and in.
This is why swimmers have those strong shoulders. You guys, seriously.
See, you can look at someone doing them like you're probably looking at me right now going, these look like they're not doing anything, but if you start doing them with me, you will feel them. These things burn. Swim it. You can make them harder by imagining you're swimming through some thick water, some mud.
Use those muscles. Flex it. Be a swimmer.
Going swimming.
Breathe. Give me three more just like this.
Here we go.
Nice. Don't drop them yet. Don't drop them. Don't drop them. Hold them. I want you to pivot it just like this. You've got one out to the side, one out in front. We've got it here. And rotate and down and up. Okay, you ready? Got that? Rotate down, up. Rotate. Down, up. Keep it going. A little windshield wiper. Down, up. Do you guys feel it? I feel them up.
Like a little cheerleader. That's what I feel like right here. Cheerleader move.
Keep your abs tight, core engaged. Up, over.
Got one more each side. One here, one here. Pressing down. Shake it out. How you feeling, you guys? Okay, little shoulder stretch. We're gonna cross right here. A little mini stretch.
Bring it across here. Mini stretch. Okay, we're not done yet. You guys. Are you ready for this one? We're gonna take it down to a push up position, but don't panic. So little V, push up. This is going to really work those shoulders, okay? If this is too hard, give me at least one. You got to try it. You got to work towards progressing and being intense and challenging yourself. We want that slimmer looking waist. We want those defined shoulders so you can be summer swimsuit. Sexy shoulder. Ready, right? So we take it down to the V. You're going to watch me first. All the way up on those tippy toes. And we're going to bring it down right there. You ready? Hovering over. Down and up. Nice.
Stay on those tippy toes. Breathe through them. It's a little push up, but you're using those shoulder muscles. Down and up. Get that body weight into it.
Keep going. Give me three more right here. One, two, last one. Whoa. Hold it here. Walk your feet up further. Make it a tight pike. Hold it. Relax. Shake it out. You guys did it. See, that was all there was to it. And your shoulders should be burning. You should be feeling it. Always stretch them out when you're done. Now if you didn't feel that or you want more, you can repeat the whole thing through. And I highly recommend you do these a few times a week. You can play this video, you can book, save it, you can mark it so you can remember to do it a few times a week to keep it going. Now, with anything you want to work your entire body. So shoulders just part of the equation here. And you want to make sure you're dialing in your diet. And if you want my help with that, I highly suggest getting my 7 day jumpstart. Either the book or the program because it's helped hundreds of thousands of people get in the best shape of their lives. I'm going to put the link down below for the program and the book so you can do this with me and comment below. Let me know if you did the workout. Let me know if you want more like this.
