Need A Shoulder Workout

LexusGS · 05-05-2006, 05:48 PM

Can anyone provide me with a workout that will help me build overall massive shoulders? A routine that will make them wide and thick. Thanks!

Military Presses (in 1-5 reps, high intesnity, and high sets)
and
Barbell Rear Deltoid Rows

Well stick to 6-12 reps for size....best to mix it up
If you do push pull this should work

seated DB press 4 sets 6 reps
cable laterals 3 sets 10 reps

do rear delts on back day

dont listen to this guy, 1-5 reps is for strength not for mass
Do this:
warmup up 1 light set 12+ reps seated overhead DB press
for all sets do 6-12 reps
3 sets seated overhead DB press
3 sets cable/dumbbell lateral raises
3 sets bentover rear lateral raises

all i do directly for shoulders is seated dumbell press or standing barbell press, my shoulders get hit doing bent over rows, cable rows, pullups, pulldowns, incline barbell bench, flat barbell, incline dumbell, flat dumbell, and doing deadlifts my rear delts get hit. my delts grow very well from just hitting one direct exercise and i let the other big exercises develop my shoulders.
