| Drilling the Delts |
There are only so many movements you can do to stimulate the muscles you are targeting. I mean if you really think about it, the body only moves in so many ways. So if there is no "magic movement," then what? It all comes down to intensity and work. You may understand intensity, but what about work? Work can best be summed up as the amount of lifting done within a certain amount of time. In other words, don't stand around chatting for 5 minutes in between sets but keep time down to a minimum and WORK! Now, with that being said, let's outline a little shoulder training and get to work! Seated dumbbell press - 6 sets of 6 reps With your seat in the upright position, get those dumbbells up to the starting position and press upward. However! Do not lock out, but only go about 3/4 of the way up. Just a little bit above the top of your head and then return to the starting position. The movement should be a nice and fluid pace. Rest no more than 15-20 seconds between sets. Dumbbell side laterals - 6 sets of 6 reps Standing with dumbbells in front of you, raise them up and out to the sides, no higher than your ears. When you get to the top of the movement "Pour the soda." What I mean is to rotate your hand slightly so that the front of the DB is slightly lower than the back. This movement simulates the "pouring" of a soda. The movement should be a nice and fluid pace. Rest no more than 15-20 seconds between sets. |
