It is time for some shoulders and triceps. I like to do these on the same day as I employ a 5 days straight routine. I have made a conscious effort over the past 4 months to go heavy with my shoulder routine.
Barbell military press:
95 (10 reps)
115 (10 reps)
135 (6 reps)
145 (3 reps)
155 (2 reps) Earl provided and excellent spot here, thanks buddy
Dumbbell military press:
65 (8 reps)
70 (6 reps)
75 (5 reps) the king of Hilliard, Earl Lanning provided the spot
Side cable fronts:
40 (8 reps)
50 (8 reps)
60 (8 reps)
On to the triceps and again it is three exercises, skull crushers, kickbacks and cable pushdowns
On the skull crushers I get a straight bar at 70, 80 and 90 lbs. I then do 8 reps to the skull followed by 8 reps in a close grip bench movement. I do three sets.
I grab a 50 lb dumbbell and do three sets of 8 lying triceps kickbacks. This is followed by triceps pushdowns at 150 lbs for three sets of 8 reps.
