Thread: Delts are my trouble area.

Try adding some isometrics to the side delt lifts. On each rep hold the peak for about a 15 count, and lower slowly. You may have to cut you poundage a little to do this, it is grueling. Try a few sets like this, and see if you feel any difference.

99.9 % of the people i see at the gym have way larger front deltoids than rear. i have never done any front delt isolation moves and i never do shoulder presses at all. i do however do 6-8 sets of good isolations for my rear delts after my heavy back work, and on push day i make sure to do 6-8 sets of lateral raises.

I'll probably be right there with you. because of shoulder problems, all military and DB presses are going out the window. I'll just keep doing front, side lateral raises, upright rows and rear delt raises

I have not done a pressing motion other than what is contained in my
O-lifts, in two weeks...

No joint pain at all -

Yes i can dig that. I have that torn left rotator cuff and because i have been babying it, i noticed yesterday that the right cuff started hurting a little. So fuck the pressing exercises

Aquedan will solve all your problems. I got bad shoulders too, only 23 years old. Lifting without knowing when I was younger.

Yeah, at the peak (End) of my last training period..

I was doing like 5 sets of 4-5 reps...
getting good sets, but after 2 or 3 weeks getting heavy...
The old rotator pain -

I am still beating up my chest pretty good with just flys once a week
like 4-5 sets of 10
my GF made a comment, so it must be doing something!?!
