| 0:00.0 | What up y'all? I have just one question. If you had to pick one muscle that when developed |
| 0:05.5 | properly has the biggest visual impact on your overall physique and appearance, what muscle |
| 0:10.8 | would you pick? Would it be your back, maybe your quads? I would say the correct answer to that |

| 0:33.4 | pieces that make up your body fit better. And today we're going to give you everything you need to develop the best possible shoulders |
