Here is 4/10/13's shoulder workout. I have been doing reverse pec deck flyes for a few weeks and I'm going to start doing bent over DB laterals now to change it up just a little. I also think my smith shoulder press suffered slightly due to all the extra drop sets and increased weight this week. I suppose I should also add what I'm doing for cardio in here as well as that is part of my training. for this workout I did 30mins on the elliptical.
Bent over DB lateral raise- 30x10 30x9 30x9 drop 20x5 drop 10x5
Incline DB lateral raise- 30x9 30x9 30x9 drop 20x5
Standing lateral raise- 35x9 35x9 35x9 drop 25x5 15x5
Upright row- 120x10 125x9 125x9
Smith seated shoulder press- 130x12 130x11 130x11 drop 90x3Comment

On delt day, unless you have an injury, you should do presses before all that isolation stuff. You can use much more weight, which means more mass. I don't think you're doing it for pre-exhaust effect, as you are not doing it for other bdpts.
Also, cut back on some of them drops - fast way to overtrain. Choose 1 exercise only per bdpt and use them - preferably the last exercise to finish off with a killa pump. Focus more on getting stronger on the mac-daddys - that will build much more mass than drop-sets every exercise.Comment

So today is an "off day".I'm actually driving across country for the next 2/3 days so I'm going to be doing my best to stay on my diet and just relax for this ride. Friday I should be back in the gym and will be attacking legs. Ill be missing a shoulder and arm workout this week but that's fine as long as I get mymajor muscle groujps in this week (chest, back, legs) ill be happy. Thanks to anyone who's been reading my log and commenting I appreciate your feedback as well.Comment

I had schedualed legs for yesterday but got caught up unpacking from my trip across the country so I got them done today. I only missed a shoulder workout and arm day during the trip so I should be fine for strength levels this coming week. I don't know why but if I miss 3 days and pick up from where I was I feel like I don't gain the extra rep per set I usually shoot for and I'm really playing "catch up". Anyways heres my leg workout for 4/20/13.

Squats- 285x10 285x9 285x9
