    shoulders

    my shoulders dont seem to get stronger i'm a little confused other body parts do, but my shoulders don't seem to, i know im eating enough calories and protein, i do a chest/triceps/shoulder day. its like this:

    3 sets bench press 5-8 rep range
    3 sets dumbbell fly 5-8 rep range
    3 sets shoulder press 5-8 rep range
    3 sets french press 5-8 rep range

    this is once per week for these body parts, so plenty of rest, plenty of protein and calories, just confused

    I would do chest/bis one day and tris/delts on another.

    Arnold presses, hang cleans, and corner presses. You can throw in some lateral raises from time to time, also.

    I would suggest taking a full week off from training, then during that time rewrite your training split, or if you want to keep the one you have then concentrate on the medial and posterior delt heads. The program you are using now if very much overtraining the anterior delt head in one workout. So if you keep your split as you have it written the substitute this for your shoulder routine: Press Behind Neck 1x6-10 (this move is only dangerous if you use improper form by drawing your head to far forward if you need to know how to perform it properly as a trainer at your gym or find a video of it on the internet) or you could use a wide grip upright row using the same rep range too, then followed by a side lateral 1x6-10 it can be machine or db and finish the workout off with a reverse machine flye of 1x6-10 reps. Your main focus here is to build the medial and posterior head of the deltoid muscle, because the anterior head gets plenty of stimulation and growth from pressing movements.

    Hope this helps

    I always find single arm standing dumbell presses do wonders if e

    Corner presses are also fantastic.
