Shoulders...

[tonyton]

Since we've already Hijacked this thread. I guess I may continue unabashed.

Along the lines of opening a gym. Has anyone heard of a "nonprofit" gym? The YMCA is nonprofit but their proceeds benefit churches and whatnot. I mean a nonprofit gym thats sole purpose is to provide inexpensive access to equipment, and low cost training and nutrition advice.

I mean. Gyms are expensive, the first year anyway. Gold's wants like $300 up front and $19 per month. A trainer is usually between $25 - $60 per hour. And in my experience "Personal Trainer" is synonymous with "Personal Spotter". That's all their usually good for if you ask me (with some exceptions). Thank you but I'll find someone to spot me (for free) when I need it.

Anyway. Poor people deserve a nice place to workout too don't they?? I think that as a nonprofit organization, time donated by Trainers would be tax deductible. I have tons of equipment that I've collected over the years. (A local HS gave me all their old stuff when they upgraded their gym.) I even have a location that's available. Has anyone ever heard of something like this??

If you want your shoulders to grow, you have to concentrate on them. Make them a priority. This means training your other upper body muscles for maintenance. This means less chest work.

Train your shoulders twice in a week, the other body parts only once.

Give shoulders their own day.

Do heavy cleans and presses. (Dumbells are excellent)

Do wide grip military presses.

Do heavy high pulls

Concentrate on getting stronger in those movements. Dont do all these movements in one day, but each on their own day or maybe 2 of these on a day.

Do your different laterals after you put the work into these heavy compounds.

Remember, you can make any muscle grow, as long as you prioritize it, and specialize on it. And train less on the other parts. Also you have to train right as well regarding exercise selections and progression.

Also a very big thing is diet. You have to make sure you are getting enough of the building blocks to support growth. This means, if you want to grow some muscle, you have to eat alot of it.

if your shoulders are bothering you ( any sharp pains) take it easy and maybe do some rotator cuff exercises. they will be easily found on the web anywhere. as for the mass do extremely heavy dumb bell militarys. also don't neglect lat and front raises or upright rows
