Please critique my shoulder workout

mrmark · 01-02-2007, 04:08 AM

This is my shoulder workout with 1 min rest between sets with a target of hypertrophy

1: Military Press - 4 sets
aim for 10 reps but usually by last set get ~8

2: Lateral/Medial dumbell raise - 4 sets
aim for 10 reps but do drop sets to make sure I get 10 reps

3: reverse flys - 4 sets
aim for 10 reps

I was told to do upright row but it doesn't feel comfortable on my shoulders. Is the routine ok or should I add something else into it?

Thanks!!!

Thanks

Hmm...my only critique is that is quite a lot for just shoulders. Better wait until someone more credible answers.

Its hard to critique without knowing the rest of your routine. It looks like a lot of volume to me.
