Boulder Shoulders

[PolishHammer1977]

The only way for me to keep my shoulders big is to keep hitting them with weights that are heavy for me

Power Clean and Press - 135 - 10X2 (Speed set warm-up)
Push Press - 205 - 3X5*
Power Clean and Press - 135 - 5X2

* = the movement begins as a power clean and than a press.

The workout lasted 25-30 minutes. My heart rate might have been visible through my shirt.

That is also a PR 3 reps on the Push Press you know.

you know, I've read on here a few times in the last month about these push-presses. I'm gonna have to give em a try. My shoulders are lacking.

 

[PolishHammer1977]

Try them first with a really, really, really, light weight. Go from there.
Just make sure you report your massive gains.

Thanx G-man!

That's funny bc I was thinking the same thing.

I also wanted to tell you. I use overhead squats as my warm ups now. Really quick way to get blood in the body. Good shit

Just training for the Elite Tourney that's all

So my heavy reps on seated shoulder press reach 3-5 @ 170lbs. After warmups I start with like 2 sets of 8-10 at 135. What weigth should I start out with on these?


Just do a clean and then press it right?

Power clean and press.

I would start out using 100. You can always go up.

so just clean it up to the chest position and press it up... easy enough, although my clean form is disgusting.

I wish it was that easy. lol But then hey, everyone would be doing it.
Tell me how you like them?

 

[gmanlax7]

i like push presses a lot

i start with a set of high reps and clean every one, then do 3 sets adding weight each time and only cleaning the first rep, then do one last set when im dead of light weight again cleaning every rep


makes the shoulders cry !@

 

[PolishHammer1977]

I like the way that workout sounds gman.

what happened to the pink dumbells . Good numbers, only do clean and jerk after I am all done as to get the blood flowing. Other than that I find seated works better for me

 

[PolishHammer1977]

Sorry I forgot to mention that work out with pink dumbells every other week. lol @ Lord. Joker.
