When to Do Rotator Cuff Exercises?

Training Bodybuilding

I’ve just read “Shoulder the Load” article on the site: Strength Training, Bodybuilding & Online Supplement Store - T NATION

But I have a question: how do you think we should implement those rotator cuff exercises into our routine/program?

My program now is:

Monday Chest + lateral delts

Tuesday Back

Wednesday off

Thursday Legs

Friday Front delt + arms

Saturday off

Sunday off

When should I work my rotator cuff?

When do you do the rotator cuff exercises?

Thanks!

Well I always do rotator cuff exercises before my workout during my warm up.
Normally that + foam roll + mobility stretching = Shoulder (left) and both in general have fixed themselves tremendiously and it gets the blood pumping through the body before the main workout.

I always start upper-body workouts with YTWLs:

which have served me well.

To pre-exhaust my rotator cuff before upper body workout really isn’t what I want… it can be very dangerous.

I want to train them well, not just to warm up.

You really don’t need much thought for this man lol do them whenever the hell you want. Hell I do some shoulder rehab before bed…it doesn’t matter at all.
