March 10, 2009A few good questions came up about my deltoid training routine..and the truth is, I dont work them very often. Its just another testament to how different all of our bodies repond to training. The result of support work for my major muscle groups has what helped my shoulders along. I have mostly fast twitch fibers, I was born with them, that is why I am a powerful hill climber on the bike and why I can still run close to a 4.5 40. I will be posting a video on that very soon so stay posted..the biggest factor for me at this point in the game is INTENSITY..no matter what the body part of muscle group, hit it hard and fast with GREAT FORM. U will get support from the secondary groups such as shoulders when you hit major groups hard and strict. When I do hit delts, I use super-sets. My favorite opposing movements for delts are seated overhead press, supersetted with upright rows or lateral raises..going as heavy as strict form will allow..trying NOT to sway the body for help. I usually pick the presses for heavier loads as it is a power movement, and sometimes the uprights tweak my neck or shoulder joints so Im careful. BUT, by the time I hit 5-6 sets of these back to back, the delts are cooked and this is usually after hitting a major muscle group like chest or back. BTW, I superset everything. Push/pull, legs with abs, whatever. I mix it up continuously and the heart rate soars, I get massive pumps and it all boils down to helping me get ripped. I highly recommend supersetting your wieght training sessions. It got me on many covers of magazines. Thanks for reading and please shoot any questions you have at me. I look forward to helping as many as I can achieve mind-blowing results.
