In last months Muscular Development, Joel Stubbs lists his giant set training that he does under Milos Sarcev.  My buddy and I decided to do the shoulder one today, and here it is.  Without any rest between exercises do four sets of ten reps for everything.  Cable lateral raise, bent over cable lateral raise, bb front raise, seated db press, db side laterals, seated bent db laterals, bb upright rows, machine side laterals, and standing db presses.  After four rotations of that (360 total reps), my shoulders are pumped and it was hard to even raise my arms.  Next was a tri-set of standing db side laterals, reverse pec-dec, and db front raise.  This time its two sets but 30 reps each exercise, now bringing the total to 540 total reps for shoulders.  Following delts we went onto traps, which I needed to help stretch out my shoulders.  Did 4 sets of db shrugs and 4 sets of behind the back smithe machine shrugs.  My shoulder girdle is throbbing and full of blood and the veins are popping out everywhere.  You can’t use a lot of weight, but I love giant sets because the muscle fibers burn and the pump is unreal.  It was a great muscle shocker from the normal shoulder and trap routine.
