FT Tier 2 not hitting shoulders enough?

[masonator]

Masonator,

So your post / question here is "classic" in that the answer is "Not Enough Information."

The title suggests you think you're not training shoulders enough. Is this true?... Are they sore ever, or perhaps sore all the time?

What exercises are you using?

Are you progressing on Loading Sets and MR's?

Are you pushing hard with your Pump sets (making them brutal)?

What stretch and stretch type are you using / doing?...

-------------

Also, what are doing that may overlap for front delts, e.g., Incine presses and OH triceps work?...

P.S. I don't know that I've ever pointed this out online before - not picking on you, but the term "medial" means closer to the midline of the body. Referring to the "medial head" of the delt (or "medial" delt), one is actually referring to the lateral deltoid or the fibers of the middle head of the delt. (The lateral delt is furthest from the body's midline when standing in anatomical position.)

My best guess is that "medial" delt is a misnomer originating with confusing the term middle and medial (without knowing what medial means anatomically).

Hi Scott!

I don't think I believe that I am training them enough as such as I know they get hit 3 times a week but I just notice they are less developed but you may be onto something with regards to overlapping as I do most of my pressing inclined so maybe front delts are being hammered.

I don't have any pain or soreness with delts unless its with stuff like lateral raises which are a killer !

With regards to progress, things are going up (reps/weight) but slowly so again, maybe they are fatigued after back and chest beforehand.

Perhaps I should move delts to first exercises in the routine?

I generally go for extreme stretching.

And finally...phewww! You are bang on..i mean the side area of delts and I "assumed" it was the medial !!! You are a smart man !
