Hey Robert,

 

Your routine is somehow similar to this one.

Did you performed it in slow tempo/motion and drop sets? check this out.

 

 

 

 

I'm really trying to blow up my shoulders. Heres my current routine. How is it? I workout my traps on my back day.

-Face Pull 3x12
-DB Rear Delt Raise 3x12
-Seated DB Should Press 4x12 + 2 drop sets
-Seated Smith Machine Shoulder Press 3x8

-Superset 3x12: Leaning DB Lateral Raise and DB Lateral Raise

 

-Reverse Pec Dec 4x12

I don't do it in slow tempo, but I also don't just let the weight fall down on the negative. I control it normally. Only on the DB Rear Delt Raises I use slow tempo.

On my reverse pec dec I will do 2 drop sets if I still have enough energy, most of the time I do.

Looks pretty good man.

 

Have you seen this shoulder exercise Scott's just put up? Maybe you could add that in somewhere for something different to smash those shoulders!

 

I actually tested this exercise out in my weight training class today, wasn't part of my workout tho. It feels REALLY good on the rear delts. I felt the tension in the muscle really well. Now I'm just deciding where to put it into my workout.

are you doing the exercises in that order? if so i would say put rear delt work towards the end, exhausting the rear delt takes away your secondary/ support muscles when overhead pressing, id say do an exercise to warm up the front and laterall delts then move into pressing, anything after that then rear delts last, thats only my personal opinion though.

personally for delts i grab some 15lbs dumbells and do half laterall raises towards the front for a warm up, moving into dumbbell or barbell press then heavy laterall raises finished with 3 sets of 60 reps reverse flys for my rear delts, i do 2 sessions per week on shoulders but only train rear delts once on my heavy pressing day for chest, allows for that great pump and on my lighter day i do dynamic movements for shoulders, everyone seems to struggle with rear delts and i did for a while till i did huge reps on them, started gaining size and strength in them went from doing 10lbs to 25lbs for each set, obviously with pauses and such for rest towards the end of the sets etc but its worth it and really pumps up the whole shoulder, just make sure youre leaning on a bench otherwise that lowerback will get sore...
