Modified Belladonna (Shoulder-Friendly)

If you have shoulder pain trouble, here is a Modified Belladonna Workout that's easier on the shoulders for you to do during FM30X Phase #2.

Modified Belladonna: 1-10-1 Pyramid Format. 

  • Exercise #1: Overhead Squat==>Sumo Squat
  • Exercise #2: Front Squat (as is)
  • Exercise #3: Swings (as is)
  • Exercise #4: Push Press==>Skull Crushers (can be done on a bench or floor)
  • Exercise #5: Bent-Over Row (as is)
  • Exercise #6: Romanian Deadlift (as is)
  • Bonus: Plank Crawl-Out x3

The Total Body Burn workout during FM30X Phase #2 should be fine as is, with the exception of the incline press. Instead, simply swap in a decline press; if you do not have access to a decline bench, simply put a weight plate or something under the bottom of the bench to slightly drop your torso lower than your legs. This slight decline helps remove shoulder pressure.

As always, if you experience ANY pain during these motions please stop exercising. Don't push through pain that feels like it's from a joint/injury. Muscle burning is fine, but we need to make sure you're not causing damage.

As always, please consult with your doctor to get medical advice on your specific situation. This substitution workout is simply a suggestion for informational purposes only - not a direct recommendation for you.
