My shoulder routine is as follows: Monday 3x4-6 reps of seated BB shoulder press Thursday 3x10-12 reps of seated arnold presses You could also ass 2 sets of side laterals on mon and 2 sets of rear laterals on thursday if you wanted. They arent needed at al though. |

If I am pressing really heavy dumbells then I use in incline at about 80-85% to the floor. I also swear by upright dumbell rows for growth of the medial head of the delts, they also brought up my traps better than any shrugs (I no longer need to do shrugs as my traps are perfect  ) J ______________________ 50% of Training is nutrition 50% of Training is not overtraining If you cant gain see the above. |

| Legend Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Southampton Posts: 697 Rep Power: | Arnold presses use dumbells in a deated position the movement starts with either you palms facing behind you (or facing inwards towards each other) and as you press them above your head you twist the dumbells so your wrists face forwards. Good movement. J ______________________ 50% of Training is nutrition 50% of Training is not overtraining If you cant gain see the above. |
