Your core exercise for deltiod MASS

[WalkingBeast]

No one exercise really. Ive always done a large variety of exercises and high volume. Lately my delts have come up alot just from incline and flat benching (many sets to failure). I was also hitting shoulders seperately as well. Often I just use side laterals with dumbbells for my seperate shoulder work. I get enough presses from the benching. When I was doing shoulder presses Id use dumbbells. I like those alot. I also like the cybex plate loaded shoulder press. Was doing that some months ago as well.

I always start out with either dumbell presses or arnold presses, then mix it up with 2 among lateral raises, bent over laterals, upright rows, front raises, and military press machine, and finish with 4 sets of shrugs.

Why's that, nate?

a number of reasons. after a stint of OLY lifting, I realized how weak my core was. with an standing overhead press you really can tell. the difference between my seated military press and my standing was staggering, so I decided to focus more on bringing the 2 closer together. Im not opposed to using dbells but I just never get around to it. I guess I just like pressing with the bar.

Re: Two favorite exercises of all time are...

I start off with good old fashion upright rows..... thickens my traps and works the hell out of my posterior delts.... Next, I hit the behind-the-neck press because they really attack the median and anterior heads of the deltoids..... thats them...... I do other exercises too; however, these are my two favorite ones!!!!!

Damn, those are the two body killers as far as shoulder execizes go..Uprights can damage the rotator cuff, and behind-the-necks can make pinch nerves in the neck.

I never do either, but YMMV.

Standing Front BB presses and lateral raises...

Either seated military presses in front of you or standing military presses in front of you & maybe some upright rows

Can't get enough standing presses. How fun is it to lock out overhead. The only overhead stuff more fun is the snatch and jerking.

 

[TheOak84]

believe it or not bench pressing has given me pretty good front delts, dont get me wrong, i still do seated barbell pressing and some db's once and a while.

 

[seizer]

i enjoy jerking

shoulder presses, then front raises, side raises, and DB rows

Definitely, it's a powerful feeling
